YouTube: Now Translation Available in Over 30 Languages!

In a true Google style of "Making Information Universally Accessible and Uselful" YouTube just announced the new Translation option which translates video captions in more than 30 different languages. Now there is nothing that I don’t understand anymore

Translation works on videos with captions only and its pretty simple to do. Just move your mouse over to the arrow-like button on the bottom right, Now click on the the triangle next to the subtitle menu (CC) and choose your prefered language of translation.

I tried translating the demo video posted on the Youtube blog, first from Italian to English and then to Hindi and thats when it kinda broke. See the screenshots and you will know what I mean.

Here is what I am talking about.

That’s the original video..

Translation: Click on the Arrow in the bottom right, triangle next to the CC button and Translate.

Translating….

Translated to English..

Trouble started when I tried translating it to Hindi…

Its a new and extreamly usefull service, I am sure this will be fixed soon..
