I have edited two versions of the same video. One with a woman's voice, generated by AI, narrating a description of the place. Sorry, it's only in Spanish but has English subtitles (I don't have rnable YouTube's feature to upload multipkle audio tracks to a video)

Of course, any comment, suggestion, criticism, advice is welcome.

Here is the narrated version:

Agreed, the narrated version is the best.
 
I liked the narration. It provides some nice context.

Without for me. As I am lacking any other language skills than English I find it distracting. I did have CC on. If I understood Spanish or was in English I would be a definite WITH .. without CC on. Was a very nice video.

I did not expect the opinions to be so clearly in favour of one of the videos: 9 in favour of the narrated video, 1 in favour of the non-narrated video. So it's clear, from now on I will try to add a narration that describes a bit the place shown in the video.

Thank you all very much!

When YouTube activates the multi-track audio feature in my videos, I will add English narration to my videos as well.

Thanks for your time to watch and comment!
 
Narration for sure. But I would suggest to lower down a bit more the music during the narrations...

Yes, in the final part of the narration the music is too loud. I'm not going to change it in this video, because if I edit it one more time, I'm going to end up hating it.

I'll keep it in mind for the next videos.

Thank you very much for your helpful comment!
 
HMMM. Good question. Both have CC which requires me to divert my eyes from the video to read it in either case since I don't speak the language. Both have music which is nice to listen to. Does the oral narrative detract from the video given I'm reading and listening to the music. So, I'm not sure.

It is a pity that YouTube does not have the feature to upload videos with multiple audio tracks, only for a few accounts.
I fully understand that reading the subtitles can be distracting.

Thank you for watching the video and posting your feedback!

If the purpose of the video is for tourism, then I’d like the narrated version. I think it was a good call not to narrate right through the whole video trying concentrating on the words not concentrating on the pictures. Good luck.
