Dub Mode turns the voice-imitation format into a video performance: players record dialogue that is presented with a clip. Use a short, well-tested dub pack and headphones so prompt sound does not feed back into the microphone.

How Dub Mode differs from a standard round

A standard voice-pack round centers on imitating a source line and receiving a judgment inside the game-show format. Dub Mode adds video timing and context, so the recorded performance is funny not only as a sound but as dialogue attached to a scene.

That extra visual layer changes what makes a good prompt. Short scenes with clear speakers, readable action, and enough room for a new performance are easier to understand than long clips with dense music or rapid cuts.

Prepare the room and run a clean first round

Use headphones or keep speakers low so the clip does not leak into the microphone. Test one default or known-good dub pack before loading a community collection, and make sure the video plays smoothly at the display resolution you plan to use.

Tell players whether they should closely imitate the scene or invent new dialogue. Both can be fun, but a shared rule keeps the first round from becoming confusing.

  1. Choose one short dub pack and play its source video before recording.
  2. Check microphone level with headphones connected and leave a small pause at each end.
  3. Record one concise take, then watch it in context before changing settings.
  4. Add more clips only after video playback, capture, and output remain stable.

Choose or create better dub content

Use the current official dub-pack guide to understand the required media and metadata. Community videos can show the creative possibilities, but their upload date and entertainment focus do not make them the format authority for the latest build.

For public distribution, use video and audio you created or have permission to share. Do not assume a short clip is automatically safe to bundle, and include clear credits plus content warnings in the pack readme.
