Studio Captioning - English Only?

[VirtualG]

❤️ Love the captions being translated upon downloading the video!! ❤️ Currently, the automatic captioning is in English only. However, can there be an option for what language you want it to caption automatically once uploaded? I'm aware that caption lines can be added, but that can only be done manually. Thoughts?

Hey there @VirtualG ,

Thanks for reaching out! It looks like with the most recent pdates to the Studio captions, it is designed to automatically detect language that is being spoken in the recording once it has been saved. If the auto-generated captions are not in the language you would like, it does allow you to delete the auto-generated captions and then request a new captioning in a language of your choosing from the following languages: Arabic, Chinese (Simplified), Czech, Danish, Dutch, English, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Latvian, Lithuanian, Norwegian, Polish, Portuguese, Russian, Spanish, Swedish, and Turkish. Ther is a limitation of only having one auto-generated captioning per Studio video, however, more can be uploaded or entered in manually. 

I hope this helps address your question!!

Thank you, 

Topher

What if Spanish is not showing up as an option and this is the language I need my captions in?

Even when you request new captioning, the option still says what language is being spoken. There isn't an option that says what language do you want the closed caption to be in.  😞  

It would be cool to have a video in English, but be able to add Spanish closed captions, but I don't think it is an option.
