Script & voice
Translating narration
Last updated
In short
- Change the narration language and ScreenDub translates the script for you.
- Titles, chapter cards, and captions move to the new language too.
- Your recording and slides are untouched.
- More than 80 languages, included on every plan.
You can translate your narration into another language. One recording or deck becomes a video for many markets. Your recording and your slides stay exactly as they are. The words change.
How to translate
- Open the project in the editor.
- Change the narration language.
- ScreenDub translates the script into that language.
- Pick a voice that fits the new language, then generate the narration.
Everything written gets translated
A language change does not stop at the spoken lines. The video title, the chapter titles, the opening and closing cards, and the captions all move to the new language too. You do not end up with English titles over Spanish narration.
Review the result
Read the translated script before you export. You can edit any line, just like the original. This lets you fix names, terms, or tone for each market.
Supported languages
ScreenDub supports more than 80 languages, so you can present to most markets from one source.
Translation and your plan
Translation to every supported language is included on all plans, free and paid. See the pricing page to compare plans.
Common questions
Do I lose my original language?
No. Translating creates the narration in the new language while your source video stays the same. You can review and edit the translated script before you export.
Will the new language need new minutes?
Yes. Generating narration in another language creates new audio, so it uses your monthly minutes like any other narration.
