You probably heard that ChatGPT is great at translating texts and songs. It gets the meaning right and keeps the original style and tone - but there's a catch when it comes to subtitles. The big issue is that it messes up the timing of each line in .ASS files, which basically makes the translations useless for actual subtitles.
Plus, there is the size limit - ChatGPT UI will only allow to translate a couple of kilobytes at once. Movie subtitle files can be up to 200-400KB, so you have to chop them up into smaller pieces and translate them bit by bit, which can be tedious if done manually.
That's exactly why this .ASS subtitle translator was created! It takes advantage of AI smarts to give you accurate subtitle translations while fixing both of these headaches.
If you compare outputs of ChatGPT, even older models like GPT-3.5-turbo and Google Translate, the difference is obvious. The reason behind this is because it keeps the context of the text, while Google Translate just treats lines as separate bits of information. This way, even short sentences or expressions, spanning across two or three lines, can be interpreted incorrectly and the meaning is broken. AI-powered translation avoids that pitfall by keeping the meaning in the context.
This is exactly what this tool is for! It lets you translate .ASS subtitle files while keeping all the formatting and timing exactly like the original. If you've ever tried copying .ASS contents into ChatGPT and asking for a translation to Spanish, French, German, or whatever, you probably noticed it makes a mess of things - the formatting gets broken and the lines don't match up anymore, making the whole thing pretty much useless. This tool was created specifically to fix that problem!
