How-to guide

Note

Please note that the current version only supports MP4 video files (MKV support coming soon). Your MP4 must contain only one subtitles track, which will be translated and replaced in a new MP4 file.

You will have to use codes to specify source and target languages. You can find them here: Available Languages. Complete CLI reference is available here: CLI reference
