Hi Rajendra,

You have to enable the Live Captions in BigBlueButton 2.6, see


Let us know if that works for you.

Regards,... Fred

@Fred Dixon

I just tried this by adding the two lines to bbb-html5.yml on BBB 2.6.5.

Shows no effect here, no drop-down is shown when joining audio.

Anything else to observe?

Its working for me on chrome 2.6.5

if your getting a weird error on start of meeting, i bet your setting.yml is malformed.

I see in the docs ?
public:
app:
...
audioCaptions:
enabled: true

dont add the ... :) that may be the issue.

Stephen

Hi Fred, 

Is there any other setting I have tried the same in BBB2.6.10 but still not working with the live caption.

hi rajendra

We also have this problem, both the live captions and the writings on the display board when rendering the video, and other problems such as the image leaving the frame in the rendered video, etc.

I suggest that if you are using previous versions, do not upgrade to 2.6.10 because it has many bugs that cause dissatisfaction.

We just released 2.6.11 and recommend you upgrade.  

>  "bbb-conf --restart" then not able to start meeting.  showing error 505 when I start meeting. 

There is an error in your settings.yml.  Try reverting the change, then adding back the change and see if you get the error again.  If so, look at the formatting of your YAML file.  

Regards,.. Fred
