Frequently Asked Questions

How does LiveTL work?

LiveTL is, at its core, a chat filter for YouTube streams. It helps foreign viewers better catch translations that other viewers are providing in the live chat. LiveTL does not automatically translate streams – instead, it picks up translations found in the chat.

I shared my stream with LiveTL but it isn’t loading.

The stream chat may be temporarily unavailable. LiveTL will only load if the stream has a valid live chat or chat replay.

I don’t see any translations in the translations panel.

If there are no translators in chat, LiveTL is unable to provide translations. Any messages properly tagged with a language (ex. [en], ESP:, etc.) will appear when they are available.

A translator is using their own style of language tags.

You can manually select additional users to filter in the settings.
