Overview
The node "CambAI" integrates with the CambAI API to provide advanced dubbing capabilities, specifically supporting an "End-to-End Dubbing" operation under the "Dubbing" resource. This operation allows users to input a video URL and automatically generate dubbed versions of the content in one or multiple target languages. It handles the entire dubbing workflow from source language identification through to generating dubbed audio tracks synchronized with the original video.
This node is beneficial for content creators, marketers, educators, and media professionals who want to localize video content efficiently without manual voiceover recording. For example, a YouTube creator can dub their videos into several languages to reach a broader audience, or an educational platform can provide multilingual versions of lectures.
Properties
| Name | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Video URL | Link to the media file to be dubbed. Supports YouTube links, Google Drive URLs, or direct media file URLs. |
| Source Language | The original spoken language in the video. Can be selected from a searchable list or specified by ID. |
| Target Languages | One or more languages into which the video will be dubbed. Selectable from a searchable list or by IDs. Multiple selections allowed. |
| Additional Options | Optional settings to control the dubbing process: |
| - Polling Interval (Seconds) | Time interval between status checks during the dubbing process. Default is 10 seconds, range 5-30 seconds. |
| - Polling Timeout (Seconds) | Maximum time to wait for the dubbing process to complete before timing out. Default is 600 seconds, range 300-1800 seconds. |
Output
The node outputs JSON data representing the result of the dubbing operation. This typically includes metadata about the dubbed video/audio files such as URLs to the dubbed media, status information, and possibly identifiers for tracking the job.
If the node supports binary output (not explicitly shown in the provided code), it would represent the actual dubbed audio/video files. However, based on the static analysis, the primary output is structured JSON containing the results and status of the dubbing request.
Dependencies
- Requires an active CambAI API key credential configured in n8n.
- Network access to CambAI's API endpoint at
https://client.camb.ai/apis. - The node depends on the CambAI service for speech recognition, translation, and text-to-speech synthesis.
- No other external dependencies are indicated.
Troubleshooting
Common Issues:
- Invalid or inaccessible video URLs may cause failures; ensure URLs are publicly accessible or properly authorized.
- Incorrect source or target language selections might lead to errors or poor dubbing quality.
- Polling timeout too short may cause premature termination before dubbing completes.
- Network connectivity issues to CambAI API endpoint.
Error Messages:
- Authentication errors indicate missing or invalid API credentials; verify API key setup.
- Timeout errors suggest increasing the polling timeout property.
- Validation errors on input properties require checking that all required fields are correctly filled.
