Multilingual subtitles let you add subtitles in multiple languages to a single Flo, so viewers can read along in a language different from the one being spoken.
Why use it
Multilingual subtitles let viewers listen in one language while reading subtitles in another — useful for audiences who understand a language when reading but prefer a different spoken language, or for teams supporting viewers across several regions from a single Flo.
How to add multilingual subtitles
- Select the language from the language selector at the top left to which you want to add subtitles.
- In the Edit panel, make sure the Subtitles toggle is turned on. Click Manage.
- This opens the Subtitles panel, showing the current language and its subtitle segments, each with a timestamp
- Click Add to add subtitles for another language.
- Choose a language from the list. The subtitles for that language will be generated from your default language.
Once published, viewers can click the three-dot menu on the player to choose their Language and subtitles separately, letting them listen in one language while reading subtitles in another.
Best practices
- Add subtitles for the languages most relevant to your audience, based on yourplan's limits.
- Reviewauto-generated subtitles against the source before publishing, especially for less common languages.
