Microsoft Teams: realtime transcription and translation
Realtime transcription and translation for any MS Teams Webinar or Townhall event
Requires: the Custom Streaming application for MS Teams, provided on the MS Marketplace. This application allows Teams to send an RTMP feed out, and into Timbra.
This is intended for event broadcast/stream formats such as webinars and townhalls. Bi/multi-directional meetings are not supported.
Due to the single language limitations imposed by Zoom’s API – CART or in-pane captions are not supported for multiple languages – translations must be deployed via Timbra’s companion widget
Setup Teams with Timbra
- Install Custom Streaming by visiting the above link and following the instructions
- Every time you run a Teams Event you’ll need to activate this within Teams
- Start a new RTMP flow in Timbra and copy and paste the RTMP credentials into MS Teams
Sending realtime translated transcription to your audience
You have three options here:
- You can use the in-room companion by sharing the URL to your Zoom participants e.g. via the Zoom chat, Slack or email
- Use the Webinar share or 3. Transcript widget to embed the transcription and translation in the webpage you would like the captions to appear in.
