How to translate into desired languages?

[Dean-Corso]

Hi guys,

just would like to know how I can let create transcription files in one or more different languages? Lets say I have an English audio speech and wanna create subtitle files of it in three languages (German, Spain, English). Is that doable and if yes, how? I was testing around using the " --task=translate" and " --language=English" commands. Only thing I get working is to translate any German audio into English language subtitles. So I just can define the spoken language in the audio file but how to define the translation/s to use and output in the created subtitles? Is that possible or not? Maybe you can give me some advice. Thanks.

PS: Otherwise some additional info would be also nice like, how to translate my X language subtitle files (srt, vtt, etc) into an other or multiple desired languages.

Whisper models supports translation only into English.

Seems I still have to use any online translate service.

Whisper does not have quality translations into another language. It is a transcribing software. I wrote above - install Subtitle Edit (Windows) - in one app you will have both Whisper and support via API or Copy-Paste of many specialized translation services.

Thanks for posting some image steps @1001ruchka. Using Google-V1 API (no key) seems to be OK (not perfect at all but OK). Would like to test some other services but for all you need some API key (don't like that) which is bad. Just can use Google V1 to expose my content to get translation back in return. That's why I'm asking for any offline translation model like whisper works you know. No upload & cloud hosting / privacy leak / dependence (online). Running translation locally many would prefer I think like they also using most other app's locally to prevent sharing a bunch of your data.

You can use Copy-Paste and any free online translator, such as Google Translate (translate.google.com), DeepL (www.deepl.com).

OK, seems that it does translate better but also has some limitations to paste text lengths 1500 as free user doing copy / paste in loop. Is there really no model to download and use it locally? Makes me wonder somehow.
