🤔 When Should I Use "No Speaker Assigned" in CAMB.ai?

Use "No Speaker Assigned" in these situations:

🧾 1. On-Screen Text Only


When: The text is just visual, not meant to be spoken.
Examples:

  • Scene descriptions

  • Labels or signs

  • UI messages like “Loading…”
    Text appears on screen, but no voice is generated.

🎵 2. Keep the Original Voice (OV)


When: You want to preserve original audio, like:

  • A song

  • A famous quote

  • A chant or poem
    CAMB.ai won’t overwrite the original sound.

⏳ 3. Speaker Not Decided Yet


When: You haven’t assigned a speaker yet.
Useful for:

  • Team collaboration

  • Waiting on new voice uploads
    Keeps the workflow moving without delay.

🔇 4. Silent or Background Sounds


When: The line represents non-verbal sounds.
Examples:

  • [Car honks]

  • [Laughter]

  • [Music starts]
    Useful for sound effects or ambient cues.

🧹 5. Bulk Edits or Cleanup


When: You’re resetting or removing multiple speaker assignments.
Why:

  • Quality checks

  • Voice reassignments

  • Script updates
    Speeds up editing across many lines.


💡Tip: Always double-check speaker assignments before exporting your dubbed video in CAMB.ai to ensure everything sounds right.
