Stream transcription and people
MicrosoftJohn Pangilinan - Did you double check that the video language is set for your video? It needs to be set to English or Spanish for Stream to generate the transcript.
If it is set to one of those and there is still no transcript, then can you work with your O365 admin to open up a support ticket. I think that would be best next step to trying to track down why the transcript didn't generate automatically.
Marc Mroz is there a way to automatically set it to English so we don't have to go define this manually for every meeting or video we want to share with our Teams? Seems like this should be a default or at least an option in tenant settings. Thanks!

csmithscf - Specifically for Teams Meeting recordings there is a meeting policy that if you toggle it to True, we'll pass the language from the teams meeting recording to Stream so that the transcript of the meeting recording is autogenerated by default.
I believe it's the "Allow transcription" setting that once enabled passes the language correctly on the recording to Stream.

- Catching up with this thread. We do not auto-detect language today, we are considering adding this capability. If you upload from the Stream Portal directly, you should only have to set the language of your video the first time, we then default it to that language going forward.
Hope this helps!
