Questions

Can it translate a video I already have?

Yes. It transcribes the speech (or reads your subtitles), you approve the translation line by line, then it voices each line in the target language on the original timing, keeps the music underneath and adds captions.

Does it change the text inside my video?

Words drawn into a finished video's picture stay as they are; the report lists them. Films built with an HTML engine, including this one, are re-rendered with the translated text instead.

Which languages does it handle?

The language wheel covers 78 languages with each one's own name in its own script. Voices follow a roster with an accent per language; less common languages are flagged for a native speaker to check.

Do I need a PopNow key?

No for the silent film, drawn portraits and subtitle-only translations. A key adds voices, a music bed, generated portraits and transcription, each quoted before anything runs.
