I’m having issues with English Machine translations on Youtube. I’ve checked extensively, machine translations are working completely fine on Netflix and I even tried installing the extension on Brave ( it accepts chrome extensions ) and I was able to get English Machine translations working on Youtube. What is really interesting is that , if I change the translation to anything other than English, I see the translations coming up just fine, only for English I get a simple “-”. Please let me know if there’s a fix, I’ve already updated chrome - I don’t know why this would work in Brave and not in chrome. I tried removing cookies/browsing history - for last 4 weeks, that also didn’t help.
There’s not a fix yet, as far as I can tell. Except maybe sleuthing around for videos with similar language options to ones that showed machine translations (until the devs fix the " - " situation already reported in the #bug category, I mean.)
I’ve had the same complaint. I’ve reported the bug and sent an e-mail and haven’t seen an official response yet.
I’m using Chrome and watching Spanish (auto-generated) videos with machine translations to English. I also get a hyphen. The same exact video translated fine a week ago. I cleared cookies/browser history and no change.
