Tella automatically transcribes your videos when you record them, but sometimes you may want to regenerate the transcript — for example, if you want to switch to a different language or if the original transcription wasn’t accurate enough.

​
How to retranscribe

  1. Open your video in the Tella editor
  2. Click the Setup tab in the sidebar
  3. Scroll to the Transcript language section
  4. Select the language you want to transcribe to from the dropdown
  5. Click Update
The button will show “Updating…” while the transcription is being processed. Once complete, your video’s transcript and subtitles will automatically refresh with the new transcription.

​
When to retranscribe

  • Wrong language detected: If the auto-detected language doesn’t match what was spoken, select the correct language and update.
  • Switch languages: Change the transcript language at any time by selecting a new language and clicking Update.
  • Mixed languages across clips: If your video has multiple clips with different transcript languages, you’ll see a “Mixed” status. Select a single language to unify the transcript across all clips.
  • Improve accuracy: If you’ve added terms to your transcript dictionary, retranscribing will apply those terms to the new transcription.
