Real-time bilingual AI subtitles. For any video.

Point KenjaPlayer at any video — a movie with no subtitles, a lecture in another language, an episode from your Jellyfin library — and it listens, transcribes and translates live. Everything happens on your device, so subtitles appear with no upload delay and no privacy trade-off.

KenjaPlayer on Mac translating Japanese speech into English live — dual subtitles over the movie

Built for the speed of speech

Most tools make you wait for a file to finish processing. KenjaPlayer schedules recognition ahead of the playhead, commits text at natural sentence boundaries, and translates fast enough to keep up with live dialogue.

  • Look-ahead scheduling — audio is analyzed before the playhead arrives, so subtitles appear on time.
  • Sentence-boundary commits — no word-salad; lines land as complete, readable sentences.
  • Context-aware batches — when there's headroom, lines are re-translated in groups for better accuracy.
  • Custom vocabulary — feed it the movie's title and names so it gets the nouns right.

Plays well with real subtitles too

AI subtitles and traditional subtitle files live side by side. Load the SRT you already have, or let the AI fill the gap when no file exists.

  • SRT / VTT support — external subtitle files load and display alongside AI tracks.
  • Timing nudge — shift subtitles earlier or later until they land perfectly.
  • Style that stays out of the way — clear, readable overlays that never fight the picture.
  • Works offline — recognition and translation need no network at all.

Subtitles, questions

How accurate is live translation?
It's real-time machine translation running on-device — excellent for following dialogue, and it re-translates in context whenever the pace allows. For dense technical speech, the transcript and summary features give you a clean second pass.
Which Apple devices support AI subtitles?
iPhone and iPad (iOS/iPadOS 26+), Mac (macOS 26+, Apple silicon) and Apple TV (tvOS 18+, with on-device Whisper models). Recognition uses Apple's Speech framework on iPhone, iPad and Mac, and WhisperCoreML on Apple TV.
Can I export the AI subtitles?
Yes — one tap exports the full transcript as a standard SRT file you can keep, share or use in any video editor.
