Multi-language audio allows you to share your videos with a larger audience by giving you the option to add audio in other languages. You can upload additional languages as audio tracks for new or existing videos.
Upload multi-language audio tracks
To get started:
- Sign in to YouTube Studio on your computer.
- From the left menu, select Languages
.
- Click the video that you'd like to edit.
- Click Add Language and select your language.
- Next to 'Dub', click Add.
- Click Select file.
- Choose which file to upload. Files must be in a supported audio-only file format and roughly the same length as your video.
- Click Publishwhen you’re ready to upload your audio track.
Note:This feature does not automatically generate dubbed audio tracks. Creators will have to record dubbed audio tracks before uploading. If an automatic dub has already been generated for your selected language, you first have to delete the auto dub in that language before you can upload your own dub.
Replace previously uploaded audio files
If you uploaded a multi-language audio track and want to replace it with a new one:
- Sign in to YouTube Studio on your computer.
- From the left menu, select Languages
- Click the video that you'd like to edit.
- Under “Audio,” click Delete
for the appropriate language.
- Repeat the steps for uploading a new multi-language audio track .
