    Hello,

    I am trying to translate from greek .srt file.The majority is fine but sometimes strange symbols appears instead of greek letters.
    Is there any way to change the Unicode of text?

    For example:

    Äåí åßíáé áëÞèåéá, Ñßêï.
    – ÓêÜóå, ðïõôÜíá.

      Hi Joh, so just to understand this problem correctly, you see this odd symbols for characters in the webpage itself or when playing the translated file? If it’s during the webpage itself, make sure the file you are trying to upload is in UTF-8 encoding. There are many online tools which can convert your file to this format (if it’s not already in).

      If you see this symbols when playing the video itself, then it may be a problem with the Video Player where it’s not recognizing a file format. For this, I would suggest try to use VLC player and see how it goes. I hope this helps.

          That’s odd. When I look at the languages popup-up for Yandex, I can see the Arabic language option (in the first column). I don’t know if this list changes based on user location. Can you try this from any other browser, or VPN and see how it goes?

            2 hours editing the subtitles . want to save it . the website was done and the browser told me to reload the website
            this very tough . can you please Akbar make like a offline version to prevent something like this happening again . thank you for your hard work to help people .

            That’s unfortunate, and sorry for the trouble! I can understand the wasted work and effort here. However, at this point, making an offline version will be pretty tricky to develop i.e. as it’s quite different to what technologies are used to build a website. The best I can suggest at the moment is that to try to frequent save/download the subtitles during editing. I know it’s not fun, but will see what I can do in the long run.

            Regards, Akbar

    the translated text doesn’t show up. Thanks.

      Sorry about the issue. What translator you are using? When you say the translated text doesn’t show up, is it that the Translated text column keep showing original language when you choose a new language? If possible try changing the translator and see if that helps e.g. if you are using Yandex, can you try Google or DeepL and see how it goes?

      Sorry for the trouble. This is when using Google translate, or any other translator? If you can more details and steps, it will help me isolate and fix the issue soon.

        Only for Google translate. Google has changed some of the translator and also many translator web pages have crashed and you cannot choose the language.

          Interesting! I just tried this and it seems to be working for me. Could be it broken for some regions/users? If you have VPN or proxy setup, can you try with that and see how it goes?

            I am sorry. I have discovered that the bug is caused by the “Popup Blocker (strict)” plugin in my Firefox. Thanks for the help and congratulations on this wonderful website that I use almost daily for my .srt. Greetings.

    Hello! I am from Brazil. Our language is Brazilian Portuguese, which is somewhat different from the Portuguese spoken in Portugal. Could you offer translations into Brazilian Portuguese? I hope so. Thanks for your work, really appreciated!

      Thanks for the feedback. I can understand the difference, but it looks Google doens’t yet support translation to Brazilian Portuguese. However, both Microsoft and DeepL support these Brazilian variant, but then these are not free to use. You can try one these and see if that works for you?
