Using Machine Translation (MT)

Once you have original language captions for a project, you'll be able to translate them into subtitles.

To do that, click on the Translations tab, and click on the Add button. This will pull up an option of translation providers as well as a list of the languages available to translate into.

By default, translations will be generated using the translation provider set as the default in your team settings. However, you can manually select a different MT provider, a translation management system (TMS) if configured for your team, or choose to translate manually.

Next, you'll select the languages for which you want to generate translated subtitles, based on the options available from the chosen translation provider and available for your team. To simplify the selection process, you can use the "Select All" or "Select None" shortcuts

When Add translations is selected, CaptionHub will send your original captions to the selected translation provider, and return translated subtitles. You can then assign linguists to review and improve these translations.

If at any time you wish to overwrite or replace your translations, you can do so via ‘Replace translations’ accessible through the Translations tab. Simply select the three-dot menu for a specific translation and select ‘Replace translation.’ This will allow you to choose another supported third-party MT engine, and/or any TMS platform(s) enabled for your team.
