      Hello,

      I am trying to use the AI Service to translate Japanese games. I read all the previous postings and I gave these settings into retroarch.cfg:

      ai_service_enable = "true"
      ai_service_mode = "0"
      ai_service_pause = "true"
      ai_service_source_lang = "6"
      ai_service_target_lang = "1"
      ai_service_url = "http://ztranslate.net/service?api_key=ECRCQTSA9D"

      I gave as button from within Retroarch/Hotkeys the "11" button of my controller.
      It doesn't work for me. What did I do wrong? And, what settings I have to give to have an effect like in Folly's picture in the previous page?

      Thank you in advance.

        I used all your settings and added :
        input_ai_service = "t"
        input_ai_service_btn = "11"

        I works over here.

        When using a hotkey enable key/button then also use that key/button.
        So check your retroarch.cfg for these :
        #input_enable_hotkey =
        #input_enable_hotkey_btn =
        When commented they are off.
        Otherwise you will see something like this :
        input_enable_hotkey = "ctrl"
        input_enable_hotkey_btn = "10"

            Hmmm... Translation doesn't work with lr-fuse. Is it because the hotkey (select) is also used for the virtual keyboard?

              Could be, try another button that does not conflict.

                @Folly I mean you have to press hotkey (select) together with the translation key, which in my case is 11 (left analog stick pressed down).

                  What language are you trying to translate ?

                  There are system specific retroarch.cfg files.
                  If you cannot use that select button then add some other key in the system specific retroarch.cfg.

                      @Folly will this work with older versions of retroarch ? Or does it only work on newer versions ?
                      Thanks

                        The first post of this topic is from November 2020.
                        It already worked back then.
                        So indeed it will work with older versions.

                        I have intergraded in my script.
                        If you use my script and installed a system then you can already use Hotkey "T" for translation.
