Language labels

Publish your captions with language labels in the target language

Last updated on February 24, 2025

When publishing to video platforms, CaptionHub offers the choice between publishing labels in English or to use endonyms, so the label will be ”Deutsch” instead of “German” and “العربية” instead of “Arabic”. Endonyms are sometimes called autonyms, autoglottonyms, or even autolinguonyms. If no endonym is available, CaptionHub will fall back to English. Custom labels are not supported.

You can see the endonyms on the supported languages page.

Configuring labelling preference

Update your preference in your team settings:

Behaviour per platform

Some platforms determine the labelling themselves.

Platform	Labelling ability
Brightcove	Configurable in CaptionHub
CaptionHub Live	Configurable in CaptionHub
Cloudflare Stream	Set by Cloudflare player
JWPlayer	Configurable in CaptionHub
Kaltura	Configurable in CaptionHub
Mux	Configurable in CaptionHub
Qumu	Configurable in CaptionHub
Qumu VCC	Set by Qumu VCC
Vimeo	Configurable in CaptionHub
YouTube	Set by YouTube
