Translate a video’s spoken content to a different language, generating a new video with translated audio.
  • Translation is asynchronous; use callback_url for completion notification
  • target_language uses ISO 639-1 language codes (e.g., es, fr, de, hi)
  • The translated video maintains the original visual content
