Now that’s what I call full description of the problem. Thank you very much for the detail findings. I have now resolved this issue, and it should work fine in the IE 11 as well. If still run into any other issues, please do let me know.
On the first page of the site, in the little window where you must upload the subtitle, I did upload different subtitles, more than once, but everything remains stuck on the first page, with a green verification sign in the right upper corner, but it doesn’t open the second page, where I can see the translation. I really tried a lot, but today it’s the first time I have this problem. Many thanks.
Thanks Teddy for reporting this issue. I have recently been notified of a problem with automatic translation feature (when you click on the “Translate” button). I’m working on the fix, but in the mean time, try to scroll through all the subtitles lines before downloading to avoid the missing translation. Sorry for the inconvenience.
When you say “it’s not working” do you mean the translation doesn’t start, or is it something else i.e. translation quality is not great, file download fails, etc? If you can explain a bit more, I can see what I can do to help here.
What browser you are using? This is mostly a problem on the old browser. Can you please try latest version of the Chrome or Firefox, and do let me know if the problem persists.
Hmmm… that’s of concern. You are using Chrome? Could this be due to some of the extensions you have installed? Have you tried running this site in Incognito mode to see if that works (as it normally disables most of the extensions)? If the problem still persists, could you please send me a screenshot at my email gakbar {at} gmail.com?
It’s not actually the text length limit, but the issue is that they don’t have any free API. Plus the paid service is too expensive i.e. may cost anywhere from $3 to $10 for translation of a single subtitle file. I can enable the API if there is enough interest in the community to get a paid service at this price.
1. You can rename the extension of the downloaded subtitle file from the .SBV to .SUB, and then you should be able to upload and translate the subtitles file normally.
2. You can use some online tool to convert the .SBV file to .SRT. Just search for “online srt convertor”.
3. Youtube classic subtitles editor also allows you to download directly the .SRT files which should work too.
But I guess best option would be that this tool should natively support these .SBV files, so will work on that support.
Many, many thanks. It works again in IE 11 and I am very pleased. You do a wonderful job with your site. Best regards, Ariadna
It doesn’t work anymore on Internet Explorer 11, but it does work on Google Chrome. I’m sorry, because it was much, much faster on IE 11.

Why doesn’t work your site today? Any problems?
Hi Ariadna,
If you can clarify on what feature or part is not working, and may be explain the issue in slightly more detail, I can see what I can do here.

When i translate, and it’s not finished yet, then I save it, why isn’t everything saved? Some are missing.

Hi, adding the “Deepl” translator has the problem of the text lenght limit?

YouTube is delivering captions.sbv (SBV) format. How to get DST format or translate the .SBV?
Hi Wael,
There are couple of options here:
1. You can rename the extension of the downloaded subtitle file from the .SBV to .SUB, and then you should be able to upload and translate the subtitles file normally.
2. You can use some online tool to convert the .SBV file to .SRT. Just search for “online srt convertor”.
3. Youtube classic subtitles editor also allows you to download directly the .SRT files which should work too.
But I guess best option would be that this tool should natively support these .SBV files, so will work on that support.

What browser you are using? Can you try latest Chrome or Firefox browser and see if that helps?
