Simple tool for automatically translating "srt" subtitles for your movies using the Microsoft translate API service.
This is a command line tool written in Python 3 to translate your subtitles for your series or movies and tested on Windows Platform.
Before using this script, you need to have a Azure account and create a TextTranslation of cognitiveservices. Then you will get a subscription key with a specific location (Region).
please fill them in Translator.py.
This tool uses os, sys, requests, uuid and json , so you will need to install it in order to run the tool.
Installing packages is really easy, just run this:
pip install requests
Just open your terminal and type:
python main.py [sub.srt] [desired sub lang] [original sub lang]
or for auto detecting the sub language:
python main.py [sub.srt] [desired sub lang]
Finally the tool will create for you a file with an upper case postfix for your desired language. e.g:
python main2.py "C:\Users\zhangwx\Desktop\test\Test1.en.srt"
will output: Test1.en_ES.srt
Final Run example: This is for whole folder that contains all srt files.
python main2.py "C:\Users\zhangwx\Desktop\test"
This for single srt file.
python main2.py "C:\Users\zhangwx\Desktop\test\806161_03_01 - AKS storage overview.en.srt"
Note: Make sure your srt subtitle files have an UTF8 encoding, else you will have errors. Checkout here to how to set the encoding in case you have a different encoding than UTF8
