Transcript, subtitle, translation, bilingual subtitles, speaker labels, AI Emoji, and downloads can depend on your plan and workspace.
Transcripts and subtitles are generated from the video audio. Accuracy can be affected by the recording quality, background noise, music, overlapping speakers, accents, language mix, or specialized words.
Common causes
Cause | What can happen |
Background noise or music | Words may be missed or misheard |
Low volume | Some phrases may be incomplete |
Multiple people speaking at once | Speaker labels or wording may be less accurate |
Strong accents or fast speech | Some words may need manual correction |
Names, brands, slang, or technical terms | The transcript may use a similar-sounding word |
Mixed languages | Language detection or translation may need review |
Poor source quality | The same issue can affect summaries, subtitles, and clips |
What to check first
Play the original video and listen to the section where the transcript or subtitle is wrong.
Check:
Is the speaker easy to hear?
Is there music, gameplay sound, crowd noise, or echo?
Are multiple people talking at the same time?
Is the video using more than one language?
Are there names, product terms, or slang that need manual correction?
If the audio is hard for a person to understand, the transcript or subtitle may also need extra review.
Edit subtitle text
In Video Editor, open Subtitles and use the Edit tab to correct subtitle lines one by one.
This is useful for:
Names and brand terms
Punctuation
Translation wording
Shortening long lines
Fixing important quotes
Editing subtitle text changes the displayed subtitle text. It does not change the original audio.
Improve audio before publishing
If speech is noisy or hard to hear, use Speech Enhance when it is available on your plan.
Speech Enhance can help with speech clarity, but it cannot fully repair every recording. Always review the final subtitle text before exporting or publishing.
Review translated or bilingual subtitles
When using translated or bilingual subtitles, review:
Names and brand terms
Slang or jokes
Product terminology
Subtitle length
Whether the translation fits the clip's tone
For social clips, also check that subtitle lines are short enough for mobile viewing.
