This is a temporary server-side overload from Google Gemini AI, not a configuration or local issue. The error "This model is currently experiencing high demand" means their API is rate-limiting due to traffic spikes.

Solutions (try in order):

  1. Wait and retry later – the spike is usually temporary.
  2. Reduce request frequency – in Menu → Tools → Advanced Options → Subtitle Translation Settings, increase Pause seconds after each translation to 3–5 seconds, and reduce Number of subtitle rows per batch to 10–20.
  3. Switch to a different translation provider – DeepSeek, Google (free), or Microsoft (free) are more stable alternatives.
  4. Use a more recent Gemini model – in Menu → Translation Settings → Gemini, change the model to gemini-2.0-flash or gemini-2.5-pro (these often have higher quota).
