lancerx Posted June 17, 2004 Posted June 17, 2004 I've just received a couple of cd in foreign lenguage, japanese, i was wondering if there is any software that can translate the jap audio to english or at least if it can add subtitles in english.
Gryph Posted June 17, 2004 Posted June 17, 2004 I really really really doubt it. Unless there is some uber expensive program that does that, I don't think speech and sound recognition is that advanced yet.
Wizard Posted June 17, 2004 Posted June 17, 2004 Not exactly per se. But people to make srt(subtitle files) files for video medias.
BuRRdRinkA Posted June 17, 2004 Posted June 17, 2004 Thatn would be cool...they should make one that translates all different kinds of profanity. Pinchy Baboso!!!
Agozer Posted June 17, 2004 Posted June 17, 2004 I'm glad that speech regocnition and text-2-speech programs/software exist (makes life easier even for one of my friends anyway...but a direct speech translator program? You're asking way too much at this point in time. The closest thing you can get is possibly entering speech as text, let some program translate it and then another program does the Text-2-Speech.
ugenn Posted June 17, 2004 Posted June 17, 2004 And you would end up with some really funky English translation.
Agozer Posted June 17, 2004 Posted June 17, 2004 And you would end up with some really funky English translation. Yeah, whatever you do, don't translate with Babelfish.

alexis Posted June 17, 2004 Posted June 17, 2004 that is not much likely to happen, the only waywould be to use a program to transform voice into text and then translate that text into english but even that way, with the errors in each step the final text will be near to senseless

random guy Posted June 18, 2004 Posted June 18, 2004 Actually, you can BUY voice translation software, but I've never seen a free version and besides I doubt it would be accurate enough to sit through a whole movie

I someone needs translation to a game, he/she/ it heads over to http://donut.parodius.com You're sounding more and more like Hannibal Lecter from the Silence of The Lambs series every day now...it's starting to freak me out. "It rubs the lotion on its skin or else it gets the hose again" Edit: I just remembered, that quote wasn't by Hanibal Lecter, but from Buffalow Bill or whatever they called him (the one making a woman-suit) Edited June 18, 2004 by random guy
