Youtube has been undergoing constant improvement with several features being introduced to users from time to time. After introducing captions and subtitles in August to help uploaders reach wider audience, now "auto-translate" feature is added to further improve the subtitles and captions feature.
While we've been working to offer captions in as many different languages as possible, there are often only a few translated versions available. To solve this problem, we added a new "auto translate" feature. Google Translate adds real-time machine translation to any caption tracks you upload. Now you can enjoy this video spoken in Italian, even if you don't understand Italian.
In order to get a translation for your preferred language, simply move your mouse over the bottom-right arrow, and then over the small triangle next to the CC (or subtitle) icon, to see the captions menu. Click on the "Translate..." button and then you will be given a choice of many different languages.
The translation does not deliver perfect translation but it will definitely help creators to offer users a better understanding of their videos.
