    hello mr Akbar
    Your work is great and it helps us a lot. I watch programming tutorials with the help of your site’s subtitle translation tool.
    And thank you very much
    But one thing that can help me a lot and maybe many others is the splte and unbreal tool for subtitles, we can determine the maximum number of words in a line and we can also make them one line with the unbreak tool, which we can do with subtitle edit. We do that, but our problem is that this tool is not a group

      Thanks Majid for your feedback and I’m glad you are finding this tool of help.

      Regarding your suggestion, definitely, these are great suggestions. I assume you want these to be define for a group and not apply manually for each file? I think there is value in both, so I will see if I can configure both one way or another.

      Regards, Akbar

      Hi Rajesh,

      OpenAI seems to support the Telugu language fine, so I have added this. The current model of the Gemini doesn’t seem to translate correctly to the Telugu, so haven’t added it yet.

      Sorry for the trouble. I can’t seem to locate your payment and/or order details. Do you by any chance remember the order number? Or if you can share your PayPal user name, I can look through this in my system logs.

    It seems PayPal is sabotaging you because all my 3 card where blocked and I can’t pay. I don’t know what the heck they are doing because this is not the first time.

      Hi Sorin,

      Thanks for getting back and sorry for the trouble there. Another payment system has been long in my wish/to-do list. But unfortunately, it’s not as simple and most of the payment solutions require business registration and other official docs. All making this hard to setup for a hobby project.

      If any of you have recommendation on some easy to integrate payment gateway, happy to take in suggestions.

      Regards, Akbar

    Hi Akbar,
    Paid twice and twice the translation has failed – you show the following message:
    “Unfortunately, the translation process failed with the following error:
    Error: In free mode, you can only translate up to 30 lines. Lines found:439
    I will be shortly looking into this. If this is a server problem, your money will be refunded in next 1-2 days. If it’s not, please contact me ASAP. In case of any further questions or queries, please feel free to contact me and mention your order#8YF41XXXXXXX.”

      Hi Dave,

      Sorry for the problem there. Apparently, it looks like somehow it was mixing those free or demo modes with your paid translation. I see that you were ultimately able to translate this fine, so please let me know if you run into this issue again. I will also see if I can reproduce this issue to fix this properly.

      BTW, as you may have figured out, you are never charged for the failed translations.

      Regards, Akbar

    Hi, I inserted an srt file in English for translation into Italian with gemini 1.0 pro. But, after paying €0.17 the translation went into error and didn’t translate. My order#5FH77XXXXXXX.
    This is not the first time this has happened and I ask you, this time, to refund me as I did not use the service.
    Thank in advance and Regards
    Francesco

      Hi Francesco,

      Thank you for using the service and sorry for the trouble. Unfortunately, in this case, the translation was blocked by Gemini for undisclosed reason. Their server does this sometime when the content is not appropriate, it can’t handle translation or is unsafe. But they don’t disclose the reason, so I’m not sure what’s the best fix here.

      That said, you are never charged for the failed translations. So the amount should still be in your PayPal or Card. If this is incorrect, please let me know. You can also open dispute on the PayPal account for any invalid charges.

      Regards, Akbar

    Please support Lightning Network (Bitcoin Layer 2) payments, it’s easy scan and pay and cheap from anywhere around the world. I hope you’ll take it into consideration. Btw, you make cool stuff, I use this all the time

      Thanks for the suggestion. I will explore this payment option and see what’s involved to support this payment system.

    Why do I have to have a family name on my google account.
    So far, none of the sites I’ve logged into with my google account have needed it.

      I’m not really sure of any such explicit restriction. Is it that when you try to login via Google, it fails? If you get any particular error (from this site or Google), it would be great if you can share that for further analysis.

    Would you please add HTTPS support for Rapid Downloader? It failed to download when I attempt to download XnView MP.

      Interesting to hear a query on this project. It’s been so long that I worked on this project, but happy to fix any problems.

      If you can share the URL which you are trying to download, I can look further into this issue.

    Would you please add AliPay, or Chinese people can’t translate by pay.
