They do this job.

One pipeline that transcribes a video, translates the subtitles and can dub the result in a synthetic voice.

The mature desktop subtitle editor — waveform retiming, line-by-line translation, and every format converted.

A second choice: they cover part of this job or are a building block for it.

Cuts and joins video files in seconds without building them again.

A desktop program that shrinks and converts video files using presets.

Desktop GUI for video translation and dubbing with a batch queue — the least programmer-hostile bilingual option.

Video editing described as a short Python program instead of done by hand.

A self-installed tool that cuts a long video into vertical short clips with subtitles, face tracking and optional dubbing.

A command-line tool that removes the silent parts of a video or audio file automatically.

A desktop window over FFmpeg for converting, trimming and processing video, audio and images.

It watches a folder for recordings and produces captions, clips and draft social posts from each one.

One job at a time: the paid tools worth paying for, the free ones you can run yourself, and who should pick which.
