A SermonWave Captions source for your scenes. Choose the language, font, size, text color, background color and opacity, outline, alignment and number of lines.

A second live stream for each language to YouTube, Facebook Live or any RTMP server, with the translated voice over your service audio and that language's captions.

Sign in with Google once. SermonWave creates each language's broadcast when the stream starts, on a stream key you pick or a new one.
A second recording file per language next to your normal one. After you stop, it is re-synced so each sentence starts when it was spoken, with a subtitle track and a .srt file.
Set how loud the original sound is, and how far it dips while the translation speaks. Your main stream and recording stay untouched.
Send a language's translated voice to OBS's monitoring device, for a speaker or transmitter in the room. It never goes into the stream.
Set the speaking language and the translation languages without leaving OBS.
Audio is compressed and buffered for up to 5 minutes, so a network hiccup delays the captions instead of losing words.
The dock warns when the link is down, the network is congested or the computer is overloaded, and sends a diagnostic report to our support team when something goes wrong.
Copy your listen link or show its QR code right from the dock.
