There's no posibility to edit the transcription, and there are several phrases that it misunderstood. So the translation is imposible due to those errors, hence, useless...

 

Also, it will consume my credits for generation, but it dont tell me how many. So I dont know if it will rip off all my credits or use just a few. I wont risk it and not be able to work later properly.

When using Firefly to translate a video from one language to another, there was no option to correct the Microsoft provided auto-translation nor correct the transcript made of the video I uploaded. This makes the translation tool non-functional for me. Further, since it was flawed and I didn't know there would be no option to edit (first time user), I've now wasted credits.

Beim Punkt "Audio übersetzen" wäre es sinnvoll, wenn man das Transkript bearbeiten kann, denn die KI hat den Personennamen nicht richtig verstanden.

Dans la traduction de l'audio, il serait bien de pouvoir modifier la transcription de l'audio original générer pour éviter que les erreurs se retrouve dans la version traduite.

Why is it not possible to add improvements to the automatically generated subtitles in videos? It would be so much better if we could add improvements once generated and before we remake the video. It would be good for the AI learning and we would have something useful to work with. 🙂

Since many Japanese kanji characters have a couple of pronounciation, Firefly generates incorrect pronounciation voice in some case.
Would be great if Express offers the feature to modify translated text before generating translated voice.

I have consumed thousands of Firefly credits but they are wasted due to mis-pronounciation.

Das Tool ist sehr gut, aber leider ist die Genauigkeit der Transkription nicht optimal. Die Lösung wäre, dass der erstellte Inhalt bearbeitbar ist. Ich denke, ohne diese Funktion ist das Tool momentan unbrauchbar.

Hi!

I’ve been testing the Dubbing Translator in Firefly and I think it would be very useful if we could manually edit the automatic transcription before the dubbing is finalized. Sometimes the tool mistakenly detects words or even assigns the wrong speaker, and this affects the final result.

Having the option to correct the transcription would greatly improve accuracy and flexibility, especially for professional projects.

Ohne die Möglichkeit den automatisch übersetzen Text korrigieren zu können - ohne nochmal Credits zahlen zu müssen - ist das Tool ungeeignet.

Hello @emanuelle_5299,

 

It is not possible at this time to edit the transcript. I merged your emssage into this thread where others have also asked for that capability.

 

My best,
