Multilingual Audio: One Video, Multiple Languages

A single video can say a lot. But if it only speaks one language, it does not reach everyone it could.

With Multilingual Audio, you can add multiple audio tracks to any video in Ignite. A English explainer gets an German track, an a Fench one, and Spanish one, and so on. Viewers choose their language directly in the player, or the right track plays automatically based on their browser language.

How to add multiple audio tracks to a video

Upload your video as usual. Go to the Content tab (the same place where you manage subtitles and AI translations). At the bottom, you will find Audio Tracks. Add a new track, select the language, upload the file. Ignite re-encodes every track to match the video and ensure smooth playback.


You can add as many tracks as you need. Each one is selectable in the player. Combined with localized subtitles, this gives viewers an experience that feels native to their language.

FYI: Multilingual audio is available for all accounts on the Basic plan and above.

Who it is for

Any organization that communicates across languages. Corporate teams with international offices. E-learning providers who offer training in multiple markets. Public institutions that serve multilingual audiences. Agencies that produce video content for clients in different countries.

Instead of producing separate videos for each language, you maintain one video with multiple audio tracks. One embed, one URL, one set of analytics.

What about dubbing?

Multilingual Audio is designed for tracks you already have. You upload the audio, Ignite handles the rest. Automated dubbing (translating and generating a new voice track from the original) is something we are working on, but it is not available yet.

For now, the workflow is: create your audio tracks externally, upload them to Ignite, assign the language, done.

A little tutorial:

How to Upload more than one audio track in ignite
  1. Open any video in your Ignite library.
  2. Go to the Content tab.
  3. Scroll to Audio Tracks.
  4. Click "Add" and upload your audio file.
  5. Select the language and save.

That's it. Easy. Right?

The track is available in the player immediately. Viewers can switch manually, or Ignite matches the track to their browser language automatically.

Active Audio Track Selection within the player

For the player itself, you are free to activate that view, see the option to switch, or not show it. Depending on the usecase your are working on.
