Microsoft Stream 2nd Language Subtitles
MissOCIt is possible, but Stream can only generate a transcript and can not translate it.
You upload a video that is in English. Microsoft Stream can generate the transcript for you. Than you download the transcript, translate it to French and upload it as French subtitle. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/stream/portal-add-subtitles-captions
And here is a solution example to automatically generate video sub-title in another language I saw some days ago: https://github.com/FBoucher/Cloud5VideoHelper
Hello, I tried to add subtitles in a second language to one of my videos, but the subtitles in the second language are just not shown.
I downloaded the original .vtt-file (it was in german) and translated it (to englisch) and afterwards added it as it is shown on the microsoft help website.
Now I change the settings in the video player to the english subtitles, but they just won't appear.
As I am pretty sure, I did nothing wrong with the upload, so I guess there is a problem with the .vtt-file?

Hi it1992 ! I downloaded an automatic generated caption file, changed some text and reuploaded it as an english subtitle. An "Apply" for this change in Microsoft Stream was not necessary. In the video player I had to turn on "Captions / Subtitles" and could see the subtitle. Try this. If this works for you, than your edited vtt file maybe is buggy.
