 '''Problem'''
-TS files from the Humax do not retain their subtitles after being edited with programs such as Video-Re-Do
+TS files from the Humax do not retain their subtitles after being trimmed using external editor programs.
 '''Solution'''
-Selecting 'Save As' M2TS rather than saving a TS file and then manually re-naming the generated M2TS file back to a TS file has been reported as a workaround for this problem, the resulting file can be played on the Humax with subtitles
+Video-ReDo is one editor that is known to retain the subtitle stream. Selecting 'Save As M2TS' rather than saving it as a 'TS' file will create the 192 byte packet format video stream native to the Humax. All that remains to do is manually re-name the generated M2TS file back to a TS file before importing the file back to the Humax. This enables new hmt and nts files to be created using the sidecar utility. The result is an edited recording which can be played on the Humax complete with subtitles, and all playback functions like seek, fast forward, and rewind, enabled.
