Translate a Dutch video into German subtitles
Dutch to German is one of the pairs where a dictionary gets you most of the way and then stops. Dutch to German differs mainly in verb position: Dutch puts the second verb early, German keeps the prefix until the end of the clause.
The timing comes from the audio, so a line lands where it is actually spoken.

What happens to your video
- Upload the file or paste a public link. Phone footage (HEVC/MOV) is read as it comes off the phone.
- The audio is transcribed first, with word-level timing, so every cue starts where speech starts.
- Each line is translated on its own. Timecodes are copied through and never rewritten.
- Download the SRT, or a copy of the video with the subtitles burned in at the original resolution.
Notes on the audio
- Dutch to German differs mainly in verb position: Dutch puts the second verb early, German keeps the prefix until the end of the clause.
- Dutch looks close to German but orders words differently; copying German syntax produces something no Dutch speaker would say.
- German is where line length becomes a hard constraint: one compound noun can fill a whole line, so the translation compresses before it breaks.

Questions
Do you translate through English?
The engine works from the Dutch audio and produces German directly; the English gloss is only for this page.
How accurate is it?
Dutch line width is close to German, and long compounds are the main problem. On top of that, review proper nouns by hand before publishing.
Can I keep the Dutch line as reference?
Yes, bilingual output keeps both lines in one file.
