For years, YouTube has offered creators the ability to translate titles and descriptions into other languages. Recently, they've also added synthetic dubbing capabilities, enabling automatic voice-overs for videos in different languages.

While these features help creators reach international audiences, they create a frustrating problem: viewers have no native option to disable these translations once and for all.

YouTube is broadening its AI-powered auto-dubbing to include 27 languages, enhancing it with more lifelike and expressive speech.

They're also testing lip-sync features to ensure that translated voices align better with on-screen characters.

Creators have the option to turn off this feature or upload their custom dubbed audio.

@flying_saucers @randahl @mroach either way the fact that one needs a 3rd party client (i.e. #NewPipe or #invidious) or a specific AddOn to undo this #Enshittification is the problem.

  • And yes, these #AutoDubbing|s are an insult to native - speakers' ears to the point that I think I owe the folks who did the #localozation of #MLPFiM into German an apology, cuz whilst it is jarring, they at least didn't *"butcher my beautiful language"

So obviously #sarcasm but this really is just bad.

@txt_file The best option I found is to literally just download the video with #ytdlp and be done with that!

#YouTube's #AutoDubbing is not only an insult to the #NativeSpeakers that actually understand the language that got #dubbed into but it's also a disgrace to multilingual YouTubers that put in effort and the entire #Dubbing #Community that put their blood, sweat and tears into making decent #dubs that actually fit both time and are lipsync'd if not got minor edits to make them lipsync'd.

@mattgrayyes personally, I find the auto-translation so fucking annoying that I can only use #YouTube through #invidious and #NewPipe which don't enable that shit.

Makes me want to shout at the person at Google who decided to automatically enable this!

YouTube auto-dubbing: Robotic translation annoys users and cannot be turned off

YouTube relies on an automatic feature that translates foreign-language videos poorly into German. Even premium payers cannot turn it off permanently.

Automatyczny dubbing na YouTube to najgorsza rzecz jaką ta firma wymyśliła od czasu usunięcia łapek w dół.
Bo przecież właśnie tego oczekuje każdy widz - beznadziejnej jakości dubbingu rodem z najgorzej IVONY. Ja rozumiem, że nie każdy zna dobrze angielski, ale to chyba lepiej tego nie robić niż robić tak źle.

Trudno mi w ogóle uwierzyć że ktoś to tam na górze zobaczył i stwierdził „puszczamy to, będzie dobrze” no błagam.
