Sorry, but this is not the solution.
This is about setting the spoken language for live captions, not for the trranscripts.
Moreover, we want to set the default language globally, so that users don't have to set it for themselves (of course, they should be able to change this setting if the global setting doesn't match their spoken language)

LindaTambuyser Read the text in the prompt. It clearly says captions and transcripts. But I can't see any parameter in the Teams meeting policy for setting it globally.
- LindaTambuyserOct 24, 2022Copper ContributorIndeed and that's the problem.
When you put a meeting policy in place which says that every recorded meeting should be transcripted, then the transcript language is English, regardless of your individual setting (which for me is Dutch).- Oct 24, 2022Agreed. When using record automatically it defaults to English only. I did put in a request to the product group last year but haven't heard anything about it. You could head over to the Teams feedback portal and add your vote or create a new request if not existing.

I have been able to change my default language which is very useful. I also mentioned that "What would be great is for some AI to recognise which language is being spoken and make the changes automatically. Then it would be perfect."
