Dubbing, ADR, and Audio Description Enhancement

​

Features:

​

• "Actor/Talent" Tag: 

  • Added a new feature to VoiceQ Cloud that allows users to tag actors and talents within the application. Now, during the dubbing, ADR, and audio description processes, users can easily identify and organize the various actors and talents involved in the project.

• Character UUID in Export:

  • Implemented the inclusion of Character UUID (Universally Unique Identifier) in the export functionality. This enhancement ensures seamless data tracking and consistency, making it easier for users to manage and correlate characters across different phases of the project.

• Default Opening of Characters Panel:

  • In response to user feedback, the Characters panel will now be open by default when selecting a project. This change streamlines the workflow, allowing users to quickly access and manage characters without unnecessary clicks.

• Completion Column in Characters:

  • Introduced a new "Completion" column in the Characters panel, which displays the progress or status of each character within the project. This addition provides a visual overview of character completion, enabling users to monitor project advancement more effectively.

• Contact Import Update:

  • Expanded the contact import functionality to include additional fields, such as:

    • Street Address: Allows users to input and manage the physical location of contacts involved in the dubbing, ADR, and audio description processes.

    • City: Enables users to specify the city or locality associated with each contact.

    • State Code: Provides a field to input the state code or region of the contact.

    • Postal Code: Allows users to record the postal code associated with each contact.

    • Department: Provides a field to enter the department or role of the contact within the project.

    • Job Title: Allows users to specify the job title or position held by each contact.

    • Stage Name: Provides a field to input the stage name or pseudonym of the contact.

    • Resource Type: Enables users to categorize contacts based on their specific resource type (e.g., actor, technician, director, etc.).

    • Vendor ID: Allows users to assign a unique identifier to contacts associated with external vendors or agencies.

    • Gender: Provides a field to record the gender of each contact, aiding in casting decisions and resource management.

• Export Character Data:

  • Introducing a powerful new feature that allows users to export character data directly from VoiceQ Cloud. Users can now generate comprehensive reports, facilitating better collaboration and external analysis during the dubbing, ADR, and audio description processes.

• Hour Column in Character Section:

  • The Character section now includes a new "Hour" column, providing users with a clear overview of the total hours associated with each character's performance. This enhancement aids in project scheduling, resource allocation, and budgeting.

• Enhanced Visibility with IP Address:

  • As part of our latest security policy update, we have introduced an improvement to enhance visibility. The IP address of the current user is now conveniently displayed in the lower-left corner of the screen.

• Rate Column for Actor Pay Rate:

  • To streamline financial management, we have added a "Rate" column that displays the pay rate for actors. Now, users can easily view and track the compensation for each actor involved in the dubbing, ADR, and audio description projects.

• Rate Type with Hours and Lines (50*):

  • In response to user demands, a new "Rate Type" option has been introduced. Users can now choose between "Hours" and "Lines (50*)" for calculating actor payments. This flexibility allows for more accurate and customized compensation calculations based on project requirements.

• Flat Rate Option for Actor Compensation:

  • To accommodate diverse pricing structures, VoiceQ Cloud now supports the "Flat Rate" option for actor compensation. Users can choose this method for payment, simplifying billing and payment processes for various dubbing, ADR, and audio description projects.

Bug Fixes

​

• Character Data Integrity with macOS Applications:

  • Resolved an issue where character data syncing with macOS applications resulted in inconsistencies. With this fix, users can now enjoy smooth and reliable synchronization, ensuring that the latest character information is consistently available across all devices.

• Two-Factor Authentication for Link Sharing:

  • Strengthened the security measures for link sharing by implementing Two-Factor Authentication (2FA). This enhancement ensures that only authorized users can access shared links, safeguarding sensitive dubbing, ADR, and audio description content.

• Timeline Text Updating:

  • Fixed a bug where timeline text failed to update correctly in certain scenarios. With this fix, users can now enjoy real-time and accurate updates to the timeline text during the dubbing, ADR, and audio description processes.

• Line Addition Shortcut 'Control+L':

  • Corrected an issue where using the shortcut 'Control+L' for line addition caused unexpected behaviour. The fix now ensures that the shortcut functions seamlessly, enabling users to add lines efficiently during dubbing, ADR, and audio description tasks.
