video-translate

A simplee and quick projecet about translating youtube shorts (working for casual and story shorts with no visual content)

Basic usage:

    python3 translator/shorts-translator.py

How it works? Simple:

After downloading the youtube short provided by the link in the "links.txt" file, the program will substract the audio from that video and save it Then it will be uploaded to your azure storage container so it can be used to be transcribed (for short videos, i mean really short videos, ther's a simple way to skip this step and avoid using azure storage)


Then the program will craete a transcription request and wait for it to finish and get the text


Then using azure translator service the program will translate the text to the desired language from the desired language (from en to fr in the default case, please check the supported languages here https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/ai-services/speech-service/language-support?tabs=stt )


Then using the speech service again, the program will convert the translated text to a voice


Then we upload the new voice again to get the new translated text with the times to save it as an srt file for subtitle


Then the program will cut a random chunk from the "path_to_the_directery/translator/resources/video_background.mp4" video and add the audio to it then save it


Then all the files will be moved to /results folder
