The popular open-source VLC video player was demonstrated on the floor of CES 2025 with automatic AI subtitling and translation, generated locally and offline in real time. Parent organization VideoLAN shared a video on Tuesday in which president Jean-Baptiste Kempf shows off the new feature, which uses open-source AI models to generate subtitles for videos in several languages.
is your goal to rely on it, or to have it as a backup?

When you do live streaming there is no time for backup, it either works or not. Better than nothing, that’s for sure, but also maybe marginally better than whatever we had 10 years ago
