I've only ever experienced Dutch dubs in kids' TV but I feel like these examples show that your Dutch model may need some work. I can't judge other languages well, but I found the Taiwanese documentary dub especially hard to follow. I wouldn't have expected Dutch to be in there for how little the language is spoken and how often Dutch speakers will understand English, though! /offtopic It seems to do a pretty interesting thing where the first male voice has a bit of a Flemish/southern accent while the second male voice has an accent much closer to "Netherlands TV" Dutch. Reminded me a bit of the Lion King dub where the dub studio used Flemish voice actors to do the jungle animals (and Dutch voice actors for the savannah animals) to underline the "different world" Simba arrived in.

Yes, that issue is also present in the German translation. I'm planning to monitor the output quality. Basically, feeding the translated audio back into the transcriber. Then compare it to the original transcript. Like a higher level loss function. I'll need this already because I don't speak all of these languages myself. But I can also use it to make the pipeline self-regulate and generate a new, better version if the last one scored too poorly.

  Interesting, I can see how that approach would catch the weird voice lines. Just the different ways the languages get picked up and processed by the AI system could be interesting. If you find anything cool, I'd love to read a blog post about it!
