Generate track subtitle

This endpoint allows you to generate subtitles for an existing audio track in a media file. By calling this API, you can generate subtitles automatically using speech recognition #### How it works 1. Send a `POST` request to this endpoint, replacing `{mediaId}` with the media ID and `{trackId}` with the track ID. 2. Provide the necessary details in the request body, including the languageName and languageCode. 3. You receive a response containing a unique subtitle track ID and its details. #### Webhook Events 1. After the subtitle track is generated and ready, you receive the webhook event <a href="https://fastpix.com/docs/webhooks/transform-media-events#videomediasubtitlegenerated">video.media.subtitle.generated</a>. 2. Finally the <a href="https://fastpix.com/docs/webhooks/media-events#videomediaupdated">video.media.updated</a> event notifies your system about the media’s updated status. </br> Related guide: <a href="https://fastpix.com/docs/video-on-demand/generate-subtitles-automatically">Add auto-generated subtitles</a>
