This program is for all movie and series lovers who want to enter the world of translation. It allows you to translate any video with very great capabilities and provides wonderful and effective tools to have the best environment to work on subtitles.

How the program works

The program provides a suitable environment for translating movies and series. It makes it easy for users to synchronize between text and audio in the video, by providing simple and easy-to-use tools related to subtitles. It is also an open-source program.

A wonderful interface

One of the fantastic features of the program is that the interface adapts to the user’s need, the interface can be changed to suit what you want to do in the translation, such as showing or hiding the video and sound wave bar, or just text translation.

Start translating from scratch

One of the program's main features is subtitling the videos from the beginning, and the most important element of this feature is synchronizing the subtitles with the audio on the video. You need to try the program for a short time before you can master it.

Sync the subtitles

To facilitate the creation of subtitles, the time of the appearance of the text on the video is chosen automatically, which is proportional to the length of the text that appears on the screen, and it will not take long to synchronize the texts with the audio on the video.

Recognize the sound wave bar

The sound wave bar helps you know where words are pronounced, and it can be used to make some adjustments to the subtitles, such as increasing its appearance time or modifying appearance time slightly, and more.

Editing ready-made translation files

If you do not have enough time to translate videos, you can easily import ready-made subtitles for the video and edit them.

The program supports all subtitles file formats with support for encoding many languages, including Arabic as well.

Edit subtitle sync with the video

Sometimes there is a problem with the synchronization of the subtitles so that the texts appear before or after their correct time, and it is easy to modify all the texts in the translation to the correct time.

Visual Sync

A correct and direct way to adjust the correct subtitle time is by linking one of the scenes in the video with the subtitle text, and all other texts will be automatically synchronized with the other scenes.

Options for editing subtitles
