Start by generating subtitles in the original language

In order to provide you with the best translation, it is first necessary to generate the subtitles in the original language of your video.

A - If you have created your original subtitle in Checksub

Open your project and click on the language button in the navbar. Once the dropdown menu is open, you can click "Add a language..." to add new subtitles languages.

When you create a translation this way, we will immediately generate the translation for the existing captions. So be sure that the transcript is good enough before adding a new language.

Do every step in the previous method (B) and then import the .srt file.

Once the project is processed, you can import your own .srt file to replace the one we generated.

Then you will be able to import your .srt file and remove the previous one.

Once you have the subtitles in the source language, it's time to translate it

open your original project by clicking on the language with the little flag on the right.

click on "Start translation" to start the automatic translation from your captions.
