The translation failed because your custom translation API endpoint did not return the expected JSON field code. In TransAPI mode, pyVideoTrans requires the response to contain "code": 0 to indicate success; otherwise it raises a KeyError.

How to fix

  1. Check the actual response of your translation API (use curl or a tool to call it directly).

  2. Ensure the JSON reply has at least these fields:

    • "code": 0 (integer) — 0 means success
    • "text" or "data" — the translated text

  3. If your API uses a different structure, you must either:

    • adapt your API to match pyVideoTrans’s expected format, or
    • switch to a built‑in translation channel (e.g., DeepSeek, OpenAI, Google) that already conforms.

Example of a valid response

{
  "code": 0,
  "text": "The translated sentence here."
}

Please refer to the official guide for custom translation APIs:
