How to add live interpretation to a live stream with Interprefy

Enabling live interpretation on your live streams with Interprefy

When using SpotMe Studio or RTMPS streaming, you can add remote simultaneous interpretation to your live streams, powered by Interprefy. See the full list of available languages.

To get started, contact your SpotMe account manager with following information:

• Date and time when you need interpretation.
• Event type/format (presentation, panel discussion, internal meeting, etc.).
• Subject matter/specialization (industry or topic the stream is about).
• Language translating from (if it's not English).
• Languages translating into.

Once the live interpretation service is set-up, simply activate the Live interpretation option in your stream(s) in Backstage, and enter the provided Interprefy key.

You will then have to invite interpreters to your workspace and instruct them how to join the live stream, so they can follow along the live stream and provide interpretation.

Note: Do not invite interpreters to your Studio, StreamYard or Zoom meetings. This would make their interpretation come 30s earlier in the stream than expected.

Your audience will simply need to use the 🌐 Change language button on the live stream player to select their desired audio language. In doing so, the live stream audio is muted and the live interpretation begins in the selected language:

Notes
Live interpretation is only available via SpotMe Studio and SpotMe RTMPS, and as a paid add-on for customers that have the SpotMe Anywhere plan.
Live interpretation will not add any additional delay to a broadcasted live stream.
Live interpretation will not be included in stream recordings, as it is only available live.
Live interpretation is only supported in Chrome, Firefox, Edge, and Safari browsers on desktop. It is not supported on mobile apps or mobile web.
Live interpretation can be enabled alongside closed captions and subtitles using EEG or Wordly.
Pre-call test interface in Interprefy should be disabled.

Enabling closed captions on your live streams with Interprefy

You can also use Interprefy to add closed captions beneath the live stream on the agenda session.

This is done by embedding an Interprefy widget in session page display template, using the "Embed" component type, in order to capture the audio of the live stream:

The audio will be sent to Interprefy where the closed captions are generated, and displayed on the page in the app (for example beneath the live stream player):

Note: You will need to have a subscription with Interprefy project management services in order to use this functionality.
