Using AI in FAB Subtitler

Using AI for file analysis

To use AI for subtitle file analysis like spell check or to find grammatical errors it is first necessary to create an AI Query which will perform this AI task. A sample AI query can be found here.

To execute one of the preconfigured AI tasks:

  • select a range of subtitles. If no range is selected then the AI task will be run for all subtitles
  • click on the “Analyze” button in the ribbon

A window will appear where:

  • You can select any of the preconfigured AI requests
  • Edit the request and modify any parameter, for example modify the AI Query or the data format
  • The estimated cost of the AI Request will be displayed if pricing information was entered in the AI Service configuration
  • By clicking on OK the AI Request will be executed

Note that the AI task is not running on the computer with FAB Subtitler. The AI task is executed by the selected AI Service in the cloud or on a remote computer and only the AI reply is displayed in FAB Subtitler.

The AI task may run for a few or for even more than 30 seconds depending on the complexity of the AI task.

Text based result window

The result window for a text (not JSON) result would appear like this and by double clicking on the subtitle or sentence number displays the corresponding subtitle in the FAB Subtitler edit window so that you can edit it:

JSON based result window

When the AI Request returns a structured JSON result with an array of records and every record contains a “number” field for the number of subtitle or number of phrase then the results will be displayed in a human readable way and not in the JSON format.

Double clicking on the subtitle or sentence number displays the corresponding subtitle in the FAB Subtitler edit window so that you can edit it.

If you wish to see the original result in JSON form then click on the “AI Result Dropdown” / “Display Last AI Result” and hold Shift and Ctrl keys pressed at the same time and a window with the original JSON as returned by the AI service will be displayed.
