Audio Translation
Hi PatriciaNunes-d, MattGarton is correct that the TTS audio files are not currently translated but if the caption or transcript text is in the course, that will be translated and can be used to create a new audio file.
If you have multiple audio/image files, we recommend using the language trigger condition to select the appropriate language files.
Hi PatriciaNunes-d Are you working with audio files that you've recorded or using text-to-speech?
I'm using text-to-speech, and when I opened the translated file, it was still in the original language.
I'll jump in here...if you are in Storyline, Articulate Localization doesnt do new TTS audio. It will still be in source language. If there are VTTs for captions, those will be translated. Also, you can't update audio, videos or images per each language on the Base slide. Those assets are shared across languages. At least based on my understanding and testing. There's a work around of sorts by doing custom slide layers per language, kind of like what they showed with Arabic in the big demo a few weeks ago. But that's a lot of work.
I imagine this is something they (Articulate) will fix/adjust long term, as many companies perfer localized audio per language.
