### Installation

Subtitles Translator is available as [`subtitles_translator`](https://pypi.org/project/subtitles-translator/) on PyPI:

```shell

pip install subtitles_translator

```

You'll also need to install [`ffmpeg`](https://ffmpeg.org/), which is available from most package managers:

```shell

# on macOS using Homebrew (https://brew.sh/)

brew install ffmpeg

# on Windows using Chocolatey (https://chocolatey.org/)

choco install ffmpeg

# on Ubuntu or Debian

sudo apt update && sudo apt install ffmpeg

```

### Usage

> **Note**

> Please note that the current version only supports MP4 video files (MKV support coming soon).

> Your MP4 must contain only one subtitles track, which will be translated and replaced in a new MP4 file.

> You can also translates SRT subtitles files, or extract and translate SRT files from a MP4 ([look at the doc!](https://tdhm.github.io/Subtitles-Translator/)).

With the following command, subtitles from 'video.mp4' will be extracted and translated from 'french' to 'english'. The video containing translated subtitles will be saved as 'translated_video.mp4':

```shell

subtitles_translator -i video.mp4 -o translated_video.mp4 -s fr -t en

```
