Import your media

After signing in you land in the workspace. Drag a video or subtitle file directly into the dashed drop video / sub area in the middle to start a new task.

Step 4

Locate the source file in Finder

In macOS Finder, open the folder that holds your media and find the video to process (here: MJ_feature_…site.mov). Click and hold it, then move on to the next step to drag it into entendu.

Step 6

Configure and generate captions

Once the video is imported, a Captioning dialog appears.
Dialogue — choose the spoken language (English by default).
Include on-screen text as subtitles — toggle on to also capture titles, signs, and other readable text in the video.
• Click the Captioning button on the right to start generating subtitles. Choose Media Only on the left if you only want the audio track without AI captions.

Switch to the Translate tab

When captioning finishes, the timeline editor opens. Click the Translate tab in the top toolbar to enter the translation workspace, where each caption line can be translated into another language.
