VLC Media Player gets AI subtitle function
The open source video player VLC is getting automatic AI subtitling. This will run locally in real time.
What hardware requirements the feature needs is not yet clear. There is also no release date yet. The developers want to provide more information in a blog post soon. At the demo at the trade fair stand, the automatic translation could be seen in German, French, Hebrew and Japanese, among other languages.
Apart from this, the video player, which was called VideoLAN Client in its initial phase, is celebrating a whopping six billion downloads this week. Despite the age of streaming services, the number of users is growing steadily. The VLC Media Player was developed by students in 1996 and has been indispensable since its release in February 2001. It scores highly thanks to its immense support for practically all video and audio codecs as well as most operating systems.
