Introduction

Unlock the power of global reach with Muvi's Language and Translation feature. Say goodbye to language barriers and cater to a diverse audience effortlessly. By adding multiple languages, you can translate the content of your streaming website and/or app into different languages. When your end-users select their preferred language on your website and/or app, they can see the content in their preferred language.

Muvi's intelligent auto-detection feature detects the user's location and displays the content in their native language, creating a personalized experience that resonates. You have full control over which languages to enable or disable, making it easy to customize your streaming platform according to your target audience.

Unlike unreliable auto-translation methods, Muvi empowers you with manual translation capabilities. You can trust that every word is accurately translated as you can verify and rectify any translations. You are no longer relying on the Google Chrome browser for inconsistent results.

How to Add a Language

• To add a new language, navigate to “Settings” -->” Manage Language” in the CMS.
• Click on the “Languages” tab. You can see the “English” language only.
• Click on “Add Language”, to add a new language.
• Select the language from the drop-down and click on “Save”.
• Repeat the process to add multiple languages.
• Once the language is added, you can view the “Language Button” on the website.
• The end-users can click on the language button to select their preferred language.

How to Make a Language Primary

After adding multiple languages, you can make one language as a primary language. By default, “English” is selected as the primary language.

• To make a language primary, navigate to “Settings” -->” Manage Language” in the CMS.
• Click on the “Languages” tab.
• “English” is selected as the primary language.
• On the left-hand side of a language (that you want to make as primary), click on the “Star Icon”,
• When asked for confirmation, click on “Proceed” to make that language the primary language.

How to Map a Language to a Specific Country

When you add a language, it is by default mapped to all countries. However, a language can be mapped to one or more than one country. For example, if you map “Hindi” to India, Pakistan, and Afghanistan, then Hindi will be only visible to the end-users in these countries when they click on the language button on the website. The Hindi language will not be visible to the end-users of other countries.

• To map a language to specific countries, navigate to “Settings” -->” Manage Language” in the CMS.

• Then, click on “Update”.

How to Enable Auto Detect Language Feature

Auto-detect language feature detects the user's location and displays the content in their native language, creating a personalized experience that resonates. For example, if the French language is mapped with France, and the auto-detect language is enabled, the end-users in France, when they visit your website, the content of the website will automatically change to the French language (if you have already translated the content).
