I use Zoom to teach Korean Professionals. I use the transcript feature to assist in administering lessons and offer feedback. Although those in the meeting are speaking English, The transcript is recording what they are saying in Korean. This has never happened before. Any insight as to how to change this would be greatly appreciated

    Hello, ​@DrLYT!  Welcome to Zoom Community! We’re excited to have you here.

     

    I can understand how confusing and disruptive that would be, especially when you rely on transcripts for lesson feedback and administration.

     

    A practical fix is to change the transcript language for each recording and let Zoom regenerate it:

    • Go to Recordings & TranscriptsCloud Recordings
    • Open the meeting recording
    • Hover over Audio Transcript
    • Select Change Language
    • Choose English and click Save

     

    Zoom will then regenerate the transcript in English.

     

    For now, Zoom’s current setup works best by selecting the transcript language per recording, which allows the transcript to be regenerated accurately in English whenever needed.
