Hello,
Awesome work! It works perfectly for me but I feel like Google Translate have a threshold so if you upload a sbv file for a video of 10 min by example, you will only get 2~3 minutes translated. It’s Google limitation. Could we split the file or something?
Thanks Bob! Google Translate has a limit, but it should be far more than 10 minutes? May be you are running into that visible content limit i.e. Google only translate visible content? So if you scroll through all the lines, or clicked on the Translate button, it should help you full file.
Hello and thank you for your translator. A bug: Translation failed for the row number#2. Is the target language correct? Internet connection problem?
This error appear sometimes in one line, sometimes in other… ever when i press “translate” button. If i edit the line with the error using notepad and putting a blank space between for example a word and a dot or between a word and a ? or with other characters and try again the error dissapear and continue translating, but in every file i have at least three errors or usually more, so for me is easier to do not automatic translate and scroll all the file from beggining to the end.
For me works well in chrome, opera, and firefox, other navigators not tested, but as the advertisement, today in opera or chrome can not select language, but in firefox works good. Hope with time this little bugs can be solved but i thank so much for the time, it is a very easy way to translate. Not perfect? No problem, i am not stupid and i can understand when translation is not perfect, but with the content i can see the films without loose any dialog, so i do not expect perfect translations, but very easy to do. So thank you very much again. Regards. marel.
Hi Marel, thank you for the detailed comment. Regarding your bug description, it looks like an interesting problem. I have not run into this issue before, but most probably, it’s due to some special content/line in subtitles. Would you mind sending me a sample SRT file via email which have this problem? I will see if I can fix this in automatic translation?
Regarding the language selection not appearing, is this something you have recently experienced? And if yes, does it happen for all the subtitle files or only few? I’m just asking question to better isolate this issue for you all.
Thanks again for the positive comments, and appreciate your understanding.
Hi again, i tried to reply to your message, but i cannot. If you want i send some files to you, only give me your mail, i have no problem, but i have more feedbacks related to the issue i explained, because today i did some checks: The issue related to language selector is only in chrome and opera and it is due to adblock-plus, if i disable it, then no problem with this. But i tested it in firefox and the translator is incredibly faster than in chrome, only for your reference.
The issue that give me errors i think is related to language (i use spanish as target and english as origin), even i can see some “it´s” in origin file, when i have the issue i only change “it´s” for “it is” and the translator skip line with no errors, same as “don´t” or “playing!” in this last case i replace with “playing !” (note space between word and ! ) I tested to change it to german, then the errors are in other different lines, so i think are related to dictionary used, i think this is a very difficult issue for you and i do not lost so much time scrolling the file for translate. Maybe the other user Bob has the same issue and this is the reason that only translate 2 or 3 minutes, because translator is stucked on a error line and do not forward. I recommend him to try to scroll the file to the end for check if in manual translation have all file translated. I ever have some issues in every file i translate, so do not worry about this, but as i ask to you for this, and you replied to me, i am giving to you my feedback about this, you can delete my messages if you think this is solved now. I have to say that if i scroll all the file from beggining to end i have no issues, and no errors anywhere, i do it with wheel mouse very fast and translate all the file in a moment.
Just scroll through all the subtitles lines (as Google translator only translate visible content). Or you can also click on the “Translate” button at the top right corner to automate this process.
Sorry for the trouble Caverna, and thanks for trying various options. I had a similar report from another user as well, and it turns out that in that case, it was the Anti Virus playing a role. Now I don’t recommend turning that off permanently (if you have one), but while I investigate this issue further this is something you can try i.e. temporarily disable any anti-virus on your system, and see if that helps?
Hi Adriana, I have never have run into this issue before. Probably your browser or operating system Save-As dialog is playing some role here. Anyway, the downloaded file should still be an SRT file, so all you have to do is just rename it, and remove the last “.txt” part from the name. I hope it helps.
A single observation. If I don’t “scroll” the text with the mouse wheel (or page down) the text that is not being seen on the screen is not translated. It would be nice if that operation was not necessary.
I am very happy to have discovered this and very grateful to the developer. Probably he is not able to measure the happiness that discovering this that has given me, and how useful it will be for me from now on. All the cinema and all the documentaries in the world are now within the reach of my language. I have no words to express my appreciation. It is an invaluable tool. Regards.
Thanks for the feedback, and glad that you are finding this tool of help.
Regarding the manual scroll limitation, you can automate this by clicking the “Translate” button at the top right corner (next to the New and Save As button). I hope this helps.
Thanks Asad! A few other users have reported this issue too, but I’m having trouble reproducing this problem. Can you please let me know what browser you are using? Also, is this specific to all or some subtitles file? Any details about the issue will help me isolate and fix the problem.

Only translates the first 19 lines.

some way to translate multiple subtitles at the same time? thanks
Multiple files translation is not yet supported, but hopefully will be in near future.
Regards, Akbar

So simple and useful. Many thanks for that!
Hi when I “save as” my file it saves it as a “srt.txt” and on that format I am not able to reopen it.
Is there a way to save it only as “srt” file?
Hi Adriana, I have never have run into this issue before. Probably your browser or operating system Save-As dialog is playing some role here. Anyway, the downloaded file should still be an SRT file, so all you have to do is just rename it, and remove the last “.txt” part from the name. I hope it helps.
