How AI video translation works
It's three steps under the hood: speech recognition turns the spoken audio into timed text, machine translation converts that text into your target language, and a subtitle renderer places it back on screen with correct timing. VoxCaption uses OpenAI's Whisper for transcription, so it handles accents and background noise far better than older tools.
What you'll need
- The video you want to translate.
- VoxCaption Studio for Windows.
- An internet connection (translation uses an online engine; transcription runs locally).
Step by step
- Open the Translation tab and click Import to add your video.
- Set the languages. Choose the spoken language as From and your target as To. Setting From explicitly (instead of "Auto") gives the most accurate results.
- Pick an AI model. Use High or Ultra for accurate results, especially for Arabic or mixed-language audio.
- Choose your output. Save subtitle files, or tick "Burn translated subtitles" to hardcode them into the video.
- Press Start. You get an SRT in the original language, one in the target language, and (optionally) a subtitled video.
Long video? VoxCaption automatically splits files over ~25 minutes into chunks so the timing never drifts.
Tips for accurate translations
- Always set the source language manually — "Auto" can misdetect short or noisy clips.
- Review the exported SRT and fix any names or jargon, then re-burn it from the Compiler.
- For Arabic subtitles, the Tahoma font gives the cleanest letter shapes.
