Correction
Correction uses a configured language model to propose changes to subtitle text. Give a concrete instruction, such as preserving names and checking obvious recognition errors. Compare with the source recording and review facts, names, dates and numbers yourself.
Translation
Choose source and target languages. Context helps the model connect neighboring lines; a glossary can keep terminology consistent. Add audience or style instructions when needed. Web research, where enabled, can help with unfamiliar terms but may send queries to an external service.
Written text and speech text
The display text remains suitable for subtitles and reading. The speech layer can expand abbreviations, add pronunciation readings or carry model-specific delivery annotations. Pandrator's optimized speech text should not replace normal spelling in subtitles.
A display-only correction should preserve existing speech optimization. Changing pronunciation or meaning may require a new take. For caption-only changes, check the export behavior described under artifacts and revisions.
Review and select
Check edits and select the intended version for later stages. Existing audio can refer to an older text version, so verify what you are exporting.
Give the text stage a clear task
A correction instruction might be: “Correct clear recognition errors and punctuation. Preserve names, facts and the speaker's meaning. Do not summarize or add explanations.” Review uncertain words against the recording rather than treating the model's suggestion as evidence.
For translation, name the target language and intended audience, and supply a short glossary for recurring names or technical terms. Keep context around a passage when its pronouns, references or tone depend on neighboring lines.
Check the result in context
Compare a difficult passage with the source and check the first and last cues of the selected range. Look for omitted sentences, changed names, altered numbers and explanations that were not spoken. Then check whether the target text fits the available caption or voiceover time.
Select the reviewed version before preparing speech or exporting. A comparison column is a viewing aid; confirm which revision is editable and which result is selected for later work.
