Hey everyone and welcome back to another Tuesday tip where in this video I'm going to be showing you how to automatically generate
subtitles for your YouTube videos for up to
191
different languages and to all of my BMX core audience out there I apologize that this isn't
BMX related but I do this with all of my tip Tuesday and news videos that I can and I've had several
Different people ask me how to do this when. I've talked about it so I figured rather than typing out this extremely long
explanation of how to do it I would just make a quick video so I hope that you guys aren't too mad at me for
not making a BMX related tip Tuesday video so I hope that you guys can either skip this one or find something useful to learn
out of it for maybe your own YouTube videos here on YouTube so
like I said we're going to be automatically generating subtitles for our YouTube videos there are several
Conditions for this so you might not be able to do it with every single video before we get too far ahead of ourselves
let's jump into YouTube which I already have up on my screen here
You're going to want to select a video that you want to automatically generate?
subtitles for and you're going to want to be in the old
creator studio because I don't believe there's a way to do this in the new studio beta as
of right now in recording this video so once you're into the creator studio and the video that you want to auto
Subtitle you go into the edit settings and all of the different things that you can do here we've got info and settings enhancements audio
and screen cards
subtitles
CC so I know that the Creator Academy or creator
insiders whatever YouTube channel just recently uploaded a video talking about
Subtitles but they didn't tell us how to make them so what you're going to do is select the subtitle
CC tab within the old creator studio
it's going to bring up this screen right here and what you're going to have to look for to make sure that you can do
this is the published and in
Automatic to be in this list if there is nothing here you're not going to be able to
automatically generate and translate subtitles
within this video so once you've found a video that you want to generate
subtitles for and it has English
Automatic under this published list you're going to want to go up to this blue button up here and click add new subtitles or
CC
automatically English pops up here you're going to click on
English and then the next screen is going to show up and you're gonna have three options upload a file
Transcribe and auto-sync or create new subtitles or cc what you're going to do here is click create new subtitles or
CC and
when the screen pops up you'll see then because we've already got automatic subtitles
generated that it puts them into the video for you whereas normally in this screen you'd be typing out the
subtitles and pushing enter for it to automatically populate these boxes in the areas that it's
Generated for you within the video we don't have to worry about any of that here or we're going to do is find you the
actions drop-down we're going to click Auto generate just to be redundant it says Auto generation
completed and then we're going to click published or publish and I don't normally read through these because they're usually
pretty close but you can go through and make sure everything is correct and that it translated everything properly for you
into subtitles I usually don't worry about it and just move ahead with the process
So now that we have that part done the rest of it is extremely easy
All we have to do is click add new subtitles or cc again
We're going to search for the language that we want and I will start with the language that I always start with and do?
China or Chinese and
We're going to click on the first one here this is the same for any language that you want to choose in this list you're
going to click create new subtitles or cc again the screen is going to pop up and it's going to have our English
subtitles here we're just going to click Auto translate you'll see that it'll automatically populate and
translate the subtitles that we have in English
to Chinese
for us and I can't tell you how much time this saves because honestly
I've never taken the time to
translate by hand I can only imagine that it would take days to do this if we did it manually
So now that we've got all of this done and
we're ready to publish our new Chinese subtitles we just click publish and
basically we just repeat the process for any
subtitle language that you want to add into your video and this is a perfect opportunity to use
analytics and subtitles together to reach entirely new audiences or reach audiences that you're already reaching
but on a whole new level because rather than having to
understand what you're saying in English or whatever language you're speaking
they will have subtitles that they can read that makes it that much easier for them to understand and enjoy your content
so with that being said go into your analytics go into your
demographics and find out which countries are watching your videos the most and then figure out what
language those countries speak then add
subtitles for every single one of these countries in their languages into your videos
So that that many more people can enjoy them and another tip for using analytics and subtitles together that will literally
boost your view counts over
night as they did for me is to go into your real-time video views and look at your top performing videos
over the 48 hour period and
make sure that you put subtitles on all of those videos for all of the languages and countries that you found in the
demographic settings this way all of your videos that YouTube is
already serving to people will get served to that many more people because now they're in different languages and
more people can enjoy them and understand them as I said this literally
boosted my view counts over night when I did it with all of my top performing videos and
it's something that anyone can do on any video that YouTube
automatically provides subtitles for and like I said if you don't have this English automatic
Here, you're not going to be able to auto translate an auto subtitle your videos you'll have to do it manually but typically
YouTube does a pretty good job of doing this for you especially if you have
video language set to your language of origin
Which is very easy to do and if you don't have it set all you have to do is select it the same way you
do to add subtitles and then click this box for default for new
uploads and this is something that you're not gonna have to worry about going away because the Creator studio
classic is not going to be going anywhere even when the studio beta becomes the studio norm
So with that being said
thank you guys for watching I hope that you guys learn something and I hope that this helps you get more views on YouTube and
helps your videos reach and help as many people as possible
