Label Translation Feature Request for Media Chrome (React)

[peter-neumann-dev]

Currently, there's no official way to translate the default labels in media-chrome/labels/labels. While we've implemented a workaround using Object.assign in our Next.js/React application, this solution has several drawbacks:

Current Issues

• The Object.assign approach is cumbersome to maintain
• Experiencing loading and caching issues with this implementation
• No clear way to handle dynamic language changes

Feature Request

Could we implement an official way to handle label translations? Possible solutions could include:

• A dedicated prop for label translations
• A translation hook or utility function
• A configuration option in the component's setup

This would greatly improve the developer experience and make the library more internationalization-friendly.

Current Workaround

Object.assign(mediaChrome.labels, translatedLabels);

Thank you 🙏🏻😊 for maintaining this great library! We appreciate your consideration of this feature request and are happy to provide any additional information or use cases if needed.
