AI Subtitle Translator

Part 1: Introduction

You can quickly get a subtitle for your favorite movies online, but what about random videos you come across online?

A few years ago, there was no way to get subtitles for such videos, but now, thanks to artificial intelligence, you can use a tool to scan a video, recognize the audio, and generate subtitles from the audio. Read the steps below to see how to do this!

Part 2: Guides

Step 1 Open Wondershare UniConverter and Load AI Subtitle Translator/Editor

Download and install UniConverter. Select “Subtitle Editor” and move on to the next step.

Step 2 Add Video and Translate Subtitles

Click the “+” on the interface of the “Subtitle Editor.” A Finder page will open for you to load the video; dragging and dropping the file on the interface also works fine.

A new window will open where you’ll see several options to ensure the subtitles are generated perfectly and in any language.

First, if you want the AI tool to generate subtitles automatically, you’ll need to click “Auto-Subtitles,” located on the right panel of the interface. It has a speech icon like this:       (We’ll discuss this later.)

An alternative is to load subtitles for the video if you already have them and let the software embed them into the video. To do this, click “Import Subtitles.”

Once you import a subtitle, the “Subtitle Translator” button will be highlighted, enabling you to access it. This feature allows you to translate subtitles into different languages; the software currently supports 143 languages. Click it and choose the desired language from the list.

The “Manual Subtitles” and “Text to Subtitles” options allow you to type or paste the subtitles manually. However, we won’t discuss them here because they can be time-consuming; we just mentioned better alternatives.

Step 3 Generate Subtitles

If you don’t have a subtitle, click “Auto-Subtitles.” A smaller window will open where you can select a “Video Language.”  It would be best to choose the language spoken in the video to ensure the subtitles the tool will generate are accurate.

Finally, click “Start Now,” and the subtitles will be generated. Use the method we discussed in Step 2 to translate the subtitles or click “Export” to save it to your Mac.
