Overview
This node integrates with the VideoDB API to perform various video-related operations. Specifically, the "Dub Video" operation allows users to dub a selected video from a specified collection into a chosen language. This is useful for content creators or marketers who want to localize videos for different audiences by adding dubbed audio tracks in multiple languages.
Practical examples:
- A marketing team wants to dub their promotional videos into Spanish and French to reach broader markets.
- An educational platform needs to provide video lessons dubbed in several languages for international students.
- A media company managing a large video library wants to automate dubbing workflows based on collections of videos.
Properties
| Name | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Collection Name or ID | Select or specify the ID of the video collection containing the target video. |
| Video Name or ID | Select or specify the ID of the video within the chosen collection to be dubbed. |
| Language | Choose the language code for dubbing the video. Options include Bulgarian, Chinese, Arabic, etc. |
| Callback URL | (Optional) Provide a URL to receive asynchronous notifications or callbacks related to the dubbing process. |
Output
The node outputs JSON data representing the response from the VideoDB API after requesting the dubbing operation. The exact structure depends on the API's response but typically includes details about the dubbing job status, identifiers, and possibly URLs to the dubbed video once processing completes.
No binary data output is indicated for this operation.
Dependencies
- Requires an API key credential for authenticating with the VideoDB API.
- The base URL for the API defaults to
https://api.videodb.iobut can be customized via credentials. - The node uses HTTP requests authenticated with the provided API key to interact with the VideoDB service.
Troubleshooting
Common issues:
- Invalid or missing API key will cause authentication failures.
- Specifying a non-existent collection or video ID will result in errors or empty responses.
- Providing an unsupported language code may cause the API to reject the dubbing request.
- Network connectivity problems can prevent successful API calls.
Error messages and resolutions:
- Authentication failed: Verify that the API key credential is correctly configured and active.
- Video or collection not found: Double-check the IDs or use the dropdown options to select valid entries.
- Invalid language code: Ensure the language code matches one of the supported options listed in the properties.
- Callback URL errors: If using a callback URL, ensure it is reachable and properly handles incoming requests.
