How to Add a New Target Language
The software supports over 20 target languages by default. Here is how to add more:
- First, make sure your chosen translation and dubbing services actually support the new language. Many dubbing tools only handle common languages, and services like DeepL also have limited options.
Note: Before adding a language, verify that your selected translation and dubbing services support it. Otherwise, adding it won't work.
- Get the language code.
You can find the codes on Google's Language List. For example, the code for Punjabi (Pakistan) is pa-PK. If your service doesn't support codes with a hyphen (-), just use the first part, such as pa.
- Go to the software folder/videotrans/ and create a plain text file named
newlang.txt. Type the language code (e.g.,pa-PK) on the first line. To add multiple languages, just put one code per line, as shown below:
Save the file and restart the software.
Warning: You will get an error if your selected translation or dubbing service does not support the newly added language.
