How to Upload Sermons in Different Languages

Step 1: Access the Upload Interface

Click on Upload Video to access the upload options and choose your preferred upload type.

Step 2: Select Your Language

Important: Before uploading your sermon, you must switch the language setting from the default English to your desired language. The language selector will be visible in the upload interface.

Step 3: Upload Your Content

Once you've selected the correct language, you can proceed with uploading your content using any of the available methods:

• Drag and drop a file from your computer
• Set Sermon Shots as a live stream endpoint (content available 15-30 minutes after service concludes)
• Provide a URL from existing platforms like YouTube, Vimeo, Facebook, Dropbox, Google Drive, or Streaming Church TV

Important Notes

• Default Language: All uploads default to English unless you manually change the language setting before uploading
• Language Selection Timing: You must select your language before starting the upload process for optimal transcription accuracy
• Processing Time: Regardless of language, the transcription and content generation process typically takes about 10% of your video's length to complete
• Content Generation: All repurposing documents (summaries, blog posts, devotionals, discussion guides, etc.) will be generated in the selected language

What Content is Generated

When you upload a sermon in any supported language, Sermon Shots automatically generates:

• Transcription (99% accurate, fully editable)
• Multiple summaries (short, long, and social media optimized)
• SEO-optimized blog post
• 5-day devotional
• Discussion guide
• Audio file for podcasting
• Quotes and verses
• Social media content with hashtags

All of these materials will be produced in the language you selected during upload.

Troubleshooting

Q: I forgot to change the language before uploading. What should I do? A: If you've already uploaded with the wrong language setting, you may need to re-upload your content with the correct language selected for optimal transcription accuracy.

Q: Can I edit the transcription if there are errors? A: Yes! The transcription is fully editable in Step 2 of the clip creation process. Simply click on any word or phrase in the text boxes to make corrections, and your changes will automatically save.

Q: My language isn't listed. What are my options? A: Currently, Sermon Shots supports the 9 languages listed above. We're actively working to expand our language support and will be adding more languages in the future.
