Linking Videos to Subtitle Files
Note
The video subtitle editor is only available on the Growth plan and up.
The Transifex Editor has a built-in video player for translating subtitles. By seeing the video, translators get extra context as they translate and review subtitles. Before the video player can be enabled, a video must be linked to the subtitle file that's being translated. Your video can be in any of the following formats:
- MP4
- WEBM
- OGG
- YouTube
For the video player to work, timestamps should be included with your subtitle file.
To link a video to a subtitle file:
-
From the project navigation, select the project with the file you want to link your video to.
-
Click on Resources.
-
From the list of resources, click on the file you want to link the video to.
-
In the header, click Subtitles video.
-
In the popup, add the URL of the video to the field matching your video's format. You can add separate URLs for the same video (e.g. www.example.com/video.mp4 and www.example.com/video.webm) if you'd like the video to work in different browsers.
Your video can be hosted on YouTube, Amazon S3, or any other 3rd party site as long as it's publicly accessible.
-
When you're done, click Close.
