Show HN: VoxaDub – Open-source AI video dubbing with speaker-aware voices
Hi HN, I have been working on a project called VoxaDub: an open source local-first AI dubbing tool which can translate videos into other languages while preserving the original voices of the speakers. A major issue when translating is ensuring the translation matches with the length of speech in the target language. Even slight differences in timing can cause unnatural dubbing. It becomes more complex when there are multiple speakers in the original video. I have created a pipeline that uses Whi

Observed adoption & comparisons
Source votes: 1 votes (Nov 10, 2026 UTC; cumulative since publication) Recent records to compare: “Show HN:LiveKit Portal – Stream ROS 2 topics and video over WebRTC” (Show HN, Nov 10, 2026); “Show HN: Video Analysis with Homomorphic Encryption” (Show HN, Nov 10, 2026). Shared themes are navigation hints; they have not been verified as the same need or independent corroboration.
Adoption decision
Evaluate it against the tool or manual workflow it would replace. The stored record supports discovery; it does not yet establish reliability, lower operating cost or commercial adoption.
Unverified requirements
Not verified: license permissions, required hardware, installation steps, maintenance status and a representative task with its failure cases.
Next test
Choose one real task and a current alternative. Record the commit, environment, input, output, elapsed time and failure behavior; retain the result before recommending adoption.
