    IS there a way for me to send multiple files at once and translate all those files in one batch?

      Hi Ben,

      No, not yet. But this is something which has been in the to-do list for long. I will see if I can get some free time to complete this soon.

    When moving from English to Spanish, and saving the SRT file, accents and grammatical constructions are not preserved, since you should save the file in Unicode (UTF-8). And the translations are not very accurate in some cases the Systram translator works better.

      Agreed, that’s a valid point. I will try to get some option soon ready to let you choose the correct encoding.

      Hi there,

      Thanks for the feedback. The issue is that you can’t upload the video files for translation. It only support subtitle files (ending with extension .SRT or .SUB).

      Thanks for the feedback. What browser you are using? Did you try any other browser? Also, does the page freeze during any specific action or it does randomly? The more details I get, the better chance of reproducing and thus fixing the issue.

      In this case you have to first extract the subtitles file from the movie before doing any translation. I don’t have any such tool recommendation, but there are couple of tools available online which can do that for you depending on the format of the movie file.

      Hi Adel,

      Thanks for the getting in touch. Unfortunately, I don’t provide any human translation services, so can’t get advantage of your services. There are many other providers who are looking for similar roles. So good luck with your pursuit.

  9. Hy sir,
    My file format is .ass but I convert into.srt but don’t work

      Does it complain about the invalid SRT file format? If yes, then probably the convertor you are using is adding something special which is not recognized by my app? Can you please share the name or link of the convertor you are using so that I can see what might be wrong here?

    Salam Akbar,

    Hope everything is OK at your end and let me seize this chance to thank you very much for all your efforts in making the life easier for many people around the world.

    I have a suggestion which I hope you take it into consideration.

    Currently, the Subtitle Translator is translating from one language to another and if I want to translate from one language to many, I will have to loop for every language.

    May I suggest to update the code to fulfill the following user stories

    As a user, I can choose the languages, so I can translate the subtitle to multiple languages in one step.
    As a user, I can click on Save as button, so I can save all the subtitles translates to multiple languages in one step

    Very much appreciate your kind feedback in this regard.

    Kind Regards,
    Fouad Sabry

      Salam Fouad,

      Thank you very much for your feedback, and I’m glad that you and many others are finding the translator of help.

      Regarding your suggestion to support multiple translation at once, it’s a nice one, and would definitely improve the overall process. However, it’s slightly tricky to implement as currently the Google Translator has a limit of how much you can translate for free on single page, and for the more data you need a paid service. So to help keep this service free, I’m kind of limiting one translation at time.

      However, this is definitely something I have plans for, and would support as soon as right set of APIs become available.

      Regards, Akbar

        Salam Akbar,

        Thanks a lot for your kind feedback. I really appreciate that.

        I think I have a tweak for that…

        I am pretty sure from front end you can allow the user to select multiple languages…

        As for the back end, I suggest to limit the translation requests to 1 per minute and definitely limit the size of the file just to make sure that the tool is still within the boundaries of the free service by Google Translator.

        I really keep bringing this suggestion once again as it does really matter a lot for many around the world…

        Kindly, let me know your thoughts about that…

        Thanks a lot

          Appreciate your suggestions and to make the life easy for others. This plan will work, but have to consider the overall usability when the user have to wait for that long. But nevertheless, if we show some of kind of progress with estimate remaining time, I think this plan will work. I will add this to my to-do list.

          Regards, Akbar

      It’s certainty in the list, but can’t give the time frame when it will be supported. In the meantime, you can use some other subtitles format conversion tool available online to convert the file to .SRT format.

      Thanks for the feedback. Regarding the language question, doing a google look-up, this looks like “Corsican”.

    Hello Adbar,
    Thanks for this great service you are providing and congratulations on your accomplishments. Want to ask a question – I am working on translating some subtitles for an educational institution and its all copyrighted material which absolutely cannot get out, of course. What happens if I run the substitles through your site, it just gets deleted after or it gets stored somewhere? I did not see any privacy policy info regarding this on your site but maybe I missed something? thanks allot!!!

      Hi Linda,

      I’m not storing any subtitles at all on my server, obviously due to copyright of various subtitles files. The subtitles files are immediately removed from the server after upload. I will try to add this somewhere clearly on my website as well.
