Dec 13, 2018Why some video has no transcript & closed captions
Hi guys,
My mother language is not English, so preferred videos with caption/transcript, but I found some Stream video go with them while others not. Like this one:https://msit.microsoftstream.com/video/4ea76c9c-d39f-489d-9152-e3d3704b7f51.
Could anyone tell me why, the captions were generated automatically when being uploaded. Is it possible to open these features?
Thanks in advance.

In order to download a video from stream, the video must be added to the group or channel by the submitter and the submitter must make you as owner . if you have "Display " rights you can only view and cant download .

Caption & transcript to the videos must be done individually for each video . I never seeon an option at the admin level.
Please refer below article for enabling caption/transcript.

Hope this helps

Thanks Thuyavan,
SO you mean the original submitter didn't check the generate captions button, then is there any solutions to generate it, like download and upload again?
