Videolinq is the only solution on the market that offers a live editing feature to improve the accuracy of GenAI-generated captions and subtitles before inserting them into a live stream. This ensures your content meets the highest standards for accessibility and clarity, even as it’s being distributed to multiple destinations. This article explains how to use the Editor with an RTMP video source. Similar steps can be taken when using a Webcam or recorded files for a channel video source.
Configure Your RTMP Video Source
Log in to your Videolinq account.
Navigate to the Sources or Channel sections.
Under the Sources tab, click Add Source.
Select RTMP as your video input source. Save settings.
Go to the Channel.
Enable Automated Captions
Go to the Channel CC tab and select option 4.
Select the desired delay. This will dictate how much time you will have to edit captions or subtitles generated before they are placed back inside the video.
Choose the source and target languages from the dropdown menu.
Click the Encoder tab to copy the RTMP path and stream key to your live encoder.
Start streaming. When you see video in the preview player push "Go Live".

Under the CC tab, locate and click the Editor button.
A new window will open, displaying the automated captions being generated in real time.
The interface allows you to:
Edit captions for accuracy before they are inserted into the live stream.
Correct grammatical errors, punctuation, or specialized terminology.
Real-Time Editing
Watch the real-time feed of captions displayed in the editor.
