About

I make videos, and I'm a little obsessed with dubbing them — turning my own clips into other languages without a studio. So when people kept mentioning open-source AI dubbing tools, I had to know: could they actually pull it off on my own machine?

So I started trying them, one by one. This blog is where I write down what really happens: the installs that fight back, the steps the README forgets to mention, and what the dubbed audio honestly sounds like once it finally runs. No sponsorships, no hype — just what I saw on my own screen. (And yes, I'm not a developer — which is probably why I notice every spot these tools trip up a normal person.)

If you love the idea of dubbing your own videos and want to know which tools are actually worth your evening, I hope these notes help.
