Why this works for Twitch Clips
Twitch clips need branded gamer aesthetic. Twitch-purple captions or gaming-neon styles fit the platform identity and resonate with stream audiences.
Why Whisper handles French well
BurnSub uses OpenAI's Whisper-Turbo (Whisper code: fr),
which has been trained on hundreds of thousands of hours of French speech.
Accuracy on clear-audio French content is typically 92–97%.

Frequently asked
Is auto-caption accurate for French?
Whisper-Turbo's accuracy on French audio is typically 92–97% for clear speech. Background noise, heavy accents, and slang reduce accuracy. Every caption line is editable before burning, so you can fix anything Whisper missed.
Does the Twitch Clips algorithm reward burned captions?
Burned captions are read directly by viewers (the words appear on screen) — no AI-detection step required. Twitch Clips typically rewards videos with on-screen text because watch-time goes up. Burned subs typically out-perform soft subs on sound-off feeds.
Can I use French subs on a video that's spoken in another language?
Yes — generate the original-language transcript first, then use a translation tool to render it in French, paste the translated SRT back in BurnSub, and burn. Native translation is on the roadmap.
