FAQ

• Where can I check pricing and available trial credits?

  Check the current Pricing page and your account balance before submitting a task. Available trial credits, paid options, and the cost shown for your selected workflow should guide your decision. Review the task settings and displayed estimate before confirming; this guide does not promise a fixed free allowance or a specific price.

• How should character names be reviewed in short-drama subtitles?

  Check character names against the episode context before approving the English subtitles. Confirm spelling, relationships, titles, and familiar forms remain consistent across appearances. Review lines where ASR may confuse names with common words, then compare the translated dialogue with the surrounding scene so each speaker remains identifiable.

• How can recurring terms stay consistent across episodes?

  Create a short reference list for recurring terms before reviewing the English output. Include relationship labels, locations, objects, and catchphrases that carry meaning across episodes. Compare repeated uses with earlier scenes, especially when a term has several possible translations, and confirm that its tone fits the established character relationship.

• What should producers check at scene cuts?

  Review subtitle timing around scene cuts in the English version, particularly when a line continues into a new shot or a speaker changes quickly. Check that each subtitle matches the intended dialogue and remains readable without obscuring a key reaction. Revisit cuts where ASR segmentation separates one sentence unexpectedly.

• Do I need professional video editing experience?

  You can start by choosing a video and configuring the translation workflow without preparing a full editing project. Review the translated subtitle text, names, timing, and the finished audio before publishing. Specialized subject matter may still need a knowledgeable reviewer, especially when a small wording change affects meaning or a speaker's intent.

• What layout checks matter for vertical short dramas?

  For a vertical short drama, inspect the English subtitles in the final 9:16 layout. Check line breaks, edge spacing, and whether captions cover faces, signs, or important reactions. Pay special attention to translated phrases that expand, then adjust review decisions based on the visible frame rather than the subtitle text alone.

• How should English emphasis be reviewed in translated videos?

  For short-drama videos, review English subtitle emphasis against the original delivery, especially stressed words, contrast, and sentence endings. English phrasing may need concise rewording rather than literal substitution. In Weydub's review, check subtitle text and timing together, then listen to the dubbed track for natural emphasis and readable pacing.

• How do I check English subtitle timing for concise delivery?

  When checking short-drama video output, compare English subtitle timing with speech boundaries and reading comfort. Shorten wording where a literal version creates crowded captions, but preserve the speaker's key meaning. Review line breaks, pauses, and sentence endings, then replay the scene to confirm concise subtitle timing.

• How should English idioms be reviewed in translated videos?

  For short-drama video content, inspect English idioms for the intended meaning rather than a word-for-word rendering. Check whether each expression fits the speaker's tone, audience, and scene context. Review subtitle text beside the video, and revise awkward phrases that sound unnatural when spoken or weaken the intended emphasis.

• What should I check before uploading private or licensed footage?

  Use footage you are entitled to process and check the current privacy policy and service terms before uploading sensitive material. For client projects, confirm that the agreed handling of faces, voices, personal details, and licensed media permits this workflow. Ask support about any specific retention or processing requirement rather than assuming a promise from this guide.
