Best Practices

Video Quality

• Source Quality: Use high-quality source videos (1080p or higher recommended)
• Clear Audio: Ensure source audio is clear with minimal background noise
• Single Speaker: Best results with single-speaker content; multi-speaker requires more processing

Dubbing Tips

• Natural Pacing: AI adjusts speech rate to match lip movements
• Preserve Emotion: Original emotional tone is maintained in translations
• Background Audio: Original music and sound effects are preserved

Lip Sync Optimization

• Face Visibility: Ensure speaker's face is clearly visible
• Consistent Lighting: Well-lit faces produce better lip sync results
• Front-Facing: Best results with front-facing or slight angle shots

Subtitle Best Practices

• Reading Speed: Subtitles are timed for comfortable reading
• Line Breaks: Proper segmentation for readability
• Timing Sync: Accurate sync with audio and scene changes

Mode Selection

Choose the appropriate mode based on your needs:

Recommendation: Use eco mode for initial reviews and max mode for final deliverables.

  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "X-API-Key: $EACHLABS_API_KEY" \
  -H "Accept: text/event-stream" \
  -d '{
    "message": "The voice sounds too formal. Can you make it more conversational and energetic?",
    "session_id": "dubbing-project-xyz"

  -d '{
    "message": "Add Spanish subtitles to this dubbed version",
    "session_id": "dubbing-project-xyz"
  }'

Batch Localization

Process multiple videos or languages efficiently:

# Use eco mode for batch processing drafts
curl -X POST https://sense.eachlabs.run/chat \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "X-API-Key: $EACHLABS_API_KEY" \
  -H "Accept: text/event-stream" \
