Hi!
Thank you so much for answering! (Maybe it would be better to make a discord so that I can videos to you instead but that's just me lol)
As for my settings, since I'm on pc and tried it, it wouldn't let me select GPU but it says it wouldn't let me in a way
The screenshot I showed above was a vid on bilibili and I'm still kinda unsure how to change the settings when it comes to my screen I'm gonna be honest
As for the Opencloud, ill see but I dont it will solve it 100% though
Hey! Thanks for the screenshots — that helps a lot
The "Ollama server not found" message is completely normal if you're not using Ollama. You can safely ignore it — OpenRouter does not require Ollama at all.
Since your system doesn't allow GPU selection, it most likely means you don't have a CUDA-capable NVIDIA GPU. In that case everything runs on CPU:
- OCR → CPU
- Local translation models → CPU
That's why it can struggle to keep up in visual novels or videos — your CPU is handling both tasks at the same time.
Using OpenRouter will help because your CPU will only handle OCR, while translation runs in the cloud instead.
Here's how to set it up:
1. Go to https://openrouter.ai and create an account.
2. Add a small balance (even $5 lasts a very long time).
3. Generate an API key.
4. In Thaluna → Settings → Ollama/Cloud section, paste your API key in the OpenRouter field.
⚠️ Important: Do NOT share your API key publicly or paste it in chat. Keep it private.
5. Leave the default model (Gemini 2.5 Flash Lite).
6. Go to Languages → select OpenRouter as the translation provider.
7. Choose your target language and click OK.
Also make sure the video or game is not running in true fullscreen mode — if it takes over your whole screen, try switching to Windowed or Borderless Windowed in the display settings.
Try that and let me know how it goes
Hello! Of course its a slow process and again thank you for taking your time with me!
I am not sure if I did it right but I got the API key and copy and paste on the thing but I didnt see the language thing unfortunately so I'm not where it is but I'm wondering if I did do it right though (You can ignore the Ollama server thing again, since I just realized I didn't have to do it again)
