Video Translation – Dubbed Audio Overlaps on one another + Plays at Increased Speed

When using Adobe Firefly's video translation feature to generate dubbed multilingual audio, the generated TTS (text-to-speech) audio overlaps with the next cue audio and is also sped up unnaturally to fit within the original segment duration. This makes the output unsuitable for any professional or production use

It sounds like the translation engine is forcing the TTS to compress into the original timing, which explains both the overlap and the unnaturally fast speech. Have you tried exporting the audio first, adjusting the timing manually, and then re‑importing it into the timeline? Another approach might be to let the segment length expand to accommodate natural pacing instead of forcing a fit. I’m curious if any third‑party tools, such as ai-dubbing, handle the synchronization more gracefully. Could Adobe add an option to disable automatic speed‑up and let users control cue lengths themselves?

@Carefree_Marshmallow05bc The second part that you added. Would be a great feature request. Could you make a feature request for:
