Abstract

Disclosed are various embodiments for translation of speech in a video messaging application. At least one computing device is employed to access a data stream received from a transmitting computing device, where the data stream comprises an audio signal embodying a first language and a video signal. The at least one computing device performs a translation of the audio signal embodying the first language to a translation output embodying a second language and determines a delay indicative of a time needed to perform the translation. The translation output is associated with the video signal after the delay. The at least one computing device determines whether a predefined amount of the audio signal embodying the first language has been translated to the translation output embodying the second language and causes the video signal and the translation output to be communicated to a receiving computing device in association with the delay in response to the predefined amount of the audio signal embodying the first language being translated.
