Actually it was some other actor, but I wonder what the above would look like.
The budget for the rest of the series started at 2.2 million per episode and inflated to 3.5 million half way through their run.Due to the cost of building Voyager's bridge, converting the old TNG sets, reshooting the scenes shot with Geneviève Bujold and the ones after Janeway's hairstyle was altered, some very ambitious special effects scenes and a substantial amount of location filming, this episode had a final budget of US$23 million, making it the most expensive television episode in the history of the Star Trek franchise. When adjusted for inflation, it proved even more expensive than Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan, and more than twice as expensive as ENT: "Broken Bow", the episode with the next-highest budget.

So it was another actor? I can't tell if you were joking about the special software combination.
