Comment on Why do people give videos English titles when the videos themselves are in some other language?
UraniumBlazer@lemm.ee 8 months agoInteresting. I really wonder why YouTube hasn’t made this universal. Like… It works quite well for the videos that I get the option for. Maybe it doesn’t work for videos where it isn’t confident about the auto-transcription?

That’s probably the thing. My videos are in finnish, with quite a bit of background speech in english (long story short: they’re letsplays). Could be that the auto-transcription can’t quite parse the random mix of finnish and english. I’ve mostly seen some odd videotitles translated to finnish, and tbh, they are so wildly confusing to me. I almost skipped a video from one of my fav. creators due to the title as I wasn’t expecting it.
