Alignment of alternate dialogue audio track to frames in a multimedia production using background audio matching

Abstract:

A computer-implemented audio alignment system includes a storage device and a processor. The storage device is configured to ingest and store video files, which each include one or more respective audio soundtracks. The processor is configured to receive an alternate audio file associated with one of the video files. The alternate audio file includes an alternate audio soundtrack with dialogue and non-dialogue audio. The video file includes an original language audio soundtrack with dialogue and non-dialogue audio. The processor aligns the non-dialogue audio from the alternate audio soundtrack with the non-dialogue audio from the original language audio soundtrack and aligns the alternate audio soundtrack with the film based on the alignment of the non-dialogue audio from the alternate audio soundtrack with the non-dialogue audio from the original language audio soundtrack.
