Judging by its name, Open Subtitle Translator is an application designed to help you translate subtitles from one language to another, pretty useful if you're a movie enthusiasts and watch the latest Box Office titles on a regular basis.
And Open Subtitle Translator is indeed a very easy way to translate subtitles, offering an intuitive interface and just a few configuration options to enhance the final process.
There's one significant point to be mentioned however. Open Subtitle Translator makes use of Google Translate and sends the lines one by one to this online translation service, which means you need an Internet connection to use the app.
Obviously, since Google Translate supports so many languages, Open Subtitle Translator supports them too, so as a result you can translate subtitles to and from English, Romanian, Spanish, Italian, Bulgarian, French, German and many other languages.
There's a settings menu as well, but nothing to worry about as it boasts only minimal options, such as the default input and output charsets, cache and maximum line size.
Unfortunately, Open Subtitle Translator sometimes fails to connect to Google Translate, which means it cannot translate the loaded subtitle file. On the other hand, it uses just a small amount of hardware resources to do its job.
Overall, Open Subtitle Translator is a handy tool that fails to serve its purpose every once in a while, despite the fact that it relies on a user friendly interface and comes with a long list of supported languages.
