Scribetape

Translate a Twitch VODinto 16 languages.

Paste the VOD link. We transcribe the stream in the language it was spoken, then translate it line by line into English or 15 other languages. Every line keeps its timestamp, so the translation downloads as SRT or VTT subtitles that stay in sync.

02Frequently asked

Which languages can I translate into?

16 languages: English, Spanish, German, French, Italian, Portuguese, Russian, Ukrainian, Polish, Dutch, Turkish, Arabic, Hindi, Japanese, Korean and Chinese (Simplified).

Which spoken languages work?

The stream is transcribed in the language it was spoken in, then translated. Streams in Spanish, Russian, French, German, Japanese and Italian were among those transcribed here in the past month.

Do the subtitles stay in sync?

Yes. Each line is translated on its own and keeps the time of the original line, so an SRT or VTT file of the translation lines up with the VOD.

Can I watch the VOD with the translated subtitles?

Twitch doesn't let viewers add their own subtitle file. Load the SRT or VTT in a player that takes one, such as VLC, next to a copy of the VOD you are allowed to download, or add it as the caption track when you edit and repost.

How much does it cost?

A translation costs 6 credits per hour of the recording, part of an hour counted as a whole one, on top of 1 credit per hour for the transcript. That is more than the free plan's 5 credits a month, so translating needs a paid plan. Essential gives 100 credits a month for $6.99.

Can it translate a live stream?

No. It works on past broadcasts and clips, once the stream has ended and the VOD is public.

Which VODs work?

Public past broadcasts and highlights at twitch.tv/videos/…, and clips. A VOD only for the channel's subscribers can't be fetched.
