Viewers pick their language
Different viewers read different languages, and the broadcast itself is untouched.
Use case
Stream as normal. Translation runs on its own line.
You don't have to touch your encoder or restream anything to add translation. Viewers open the translation link in a second tab or on their phone and follow along with the broadcast.
Why adding translation to a stream is usually awkward
- Platform auto-captions are typically source-language only, with limited language coverage.
- Burning captions into the video forces every viewer into the same single language.
- Changing encoder settings is risky — if it breaks mid-broadcast there is no way back.
How it's set up
- 1
Leave your streaming setup alone
OBS, your streaming software, or going live directly — none of it changes.
- 2
Open the presenter page on the same computer
Choose "both" or "meeting audio" to pick up what you're broadcasting.
- 3
Post the translation link with the stream
In the description, a pinned comment, or both.
Your slides
Drag anywhere — never covers your slides
The result
Works for mobile viewers
Someone watching on a phone opens the captions on a second device or tab.
A transcript afterwards
Useful for the video description, chapter markers, or social posts.
Practical tip
Say the translation link out loud at the start and pin it as a comment. If it only lives in the description, most viewers never see it.
Don't take our word for it — run one yourself.
