How to translate and dub a video into another language

Subtitles or dubbing?

Translated subtitles change only the on-screen text and keep your original voice and timing, which makes them quick to check. Dubbing produces a new version with translated speech. Many creators start with subtitles and dub the videos that perform best.

• Subtitles: quicker to review, and they keep your own voice
• Dubbing: viewers can listen without reading
• You can offer both for the same video

Prepare the source video

Both workflows depend on clear speech. The video needs an audible audio track, and the source and target languages must be different. Record without loud background music so the speech is easy to separate.

Translate the captions and review them

Generate the captions, choose the target language and review each line, especially names, product terms and idioms. PromptFy keeps the original transcription, so you can restore it at any point before exporting.

Dub the video

For dubbing, PromptFy checks the audio and the duration, prepares a compatible upload, tracks the job and saves the finished version next to the original. Processing can take a while, and you can leave the screen while it runs.

Keep every version organized

Each dub is stored as its own variant of the source video, so you can keep several languages side by side without overwriting the master. Delete a variant when you no longer need it.
