StreamLive ProLive streaming software in Hebrew: what to check
Live streaming software in Hebrew: a Hebrew interface, captions that read right to left, Hebrew Shorts and translation. What to check and how StreamLive Pro does it.
StreamLive Pro is live streaming software with a full Hebrew interface: the browser studio, the dashboard and the StreamLive Pro app work in Hebrew or English, and the page turns right to left in Hebrew. After the broadcast it writes Hebrew captions right to left, with punctuation and numbers in the right place, cuts Hebrew Shorts and translates captions into 143 languages. StreamLive Pro Studio, the desktop app, has Hebrew and English in its 0.5.0 test version and is not released yet.
"In Hebrew" means more than a translated menu. A Hebrew audience notices four things: the interface, the captions, the Shorts, and the help when something goes wrong. This guide shows what to check in any tool, and where StreamLive Pro stands on each.
The four things to check
| What | What "works in Hebrew" means | What goes wrong in tools built for English |
|---|---|---|
| Interface | Every screen in Hebrew, right to left | A translated menu inside a left-to-right layout, or English only |
| Captions | Hebrew speech transcribed, lines that read right to left | Question marks and full stops at the start of the line, numbers that jump |
| Shorts | Burned-in Hebrew captions that stay correct while words light up | Words in reverse order when the caption animates |
| Help | Articles and support you can read in Hebrew | Help in English only |
Interface: Hebrew right to left
The StreamLive Pro dashboard works in Hebrew and English. Switch under Settings, Preferences, Interface language, and the whole page flips direction at once. The choice is saved with your account, and the emails follow it. Steps: Switch the dashboard language between Hebrew and English.
The same goes for the browser studio, where you go live from Live stream, and for the StreamLive Pro app on the phone, which offers Hebrew and English and lays out its screens right to left in Hebrew. The app is not in the App Store or Google Play yet: Android has a direct download from /app?lang=en, and on iPhone you use the site in Safari.
Captions: where Hebrew usually breaks
Text is stored in reading order, and a player decides on each line what goes where. Letters have a direction; punctuation, spaces and digits do not. A Hebrew line that ends with "?" can show the mark at the start if the player treats the line as left to right. StreamLive Pro's SRT and VTT files start every Hebrew line with an invisible right-to-left mark to prevent that. If the mark is stripped by another tool, the punctuation jumps: Hebrew captions reversed or punctuation on the wrong side.
What you get:
- Automatic Hebrew transcription, timed per word, which you can correct before you publish: Automatic Hebrew subtitles — transcribe, edit, and burn them in.
- Export as SRT or VTT, or burned into the video.
- Translation of the captions into 143 languages, whole sentences rather than word by word. English subtitles for a Hebrew video: English subtitles for a Hebrew video. Transcription itself works in about 100 languages.
- Names and terms. Hebrew names, places and words borrowed from other languages are where automatic transcription errs most. Correct them in the transcript before you publish, and the captions follow: Fix names and terms in a transcript (find and replace).
Shorts in Hebrew
After a broadcast, or from any uploaded video, StreamLive Pro cuts vertical Shorts with burned-in Hebrew captions that stay right to left even when the current word is highlighted. The frame follows the speaker. The AI chooses the moments and can be wrong, so review before posting. See Automatic Hebrew captions on Shorts.
Captions during the live
Captions or translation that viewers see during the broadcast are not available in StreamLive Pro today. Captions come after the broadcast, on the recording and on the Shorts. No dubbing and no voice cloning. If live Hebrew captions are a must, check that point with any tool you consider, and ask to see it working on real Hebrew speech, not only in a feature list.
Help and support in Hebrew
The help center has its articles in Hebrew and English. You can reach a person: When you are connected to a person. In Israel, plans are charged in shekels with VAT included and an Israeli tax invoice for every payment; see pricing.
How to test a tool in Hebrew in 20 minutes
- Switch the interface to Hebrew and check that the whole page turns right to left.
- Record two minutes of Hebrew speech that includes a question, a number and an English brand name.
- Look at the captions. Is the question mark at the end of the line on the left? Is the number in the right place? Is the brand name in the right order?
- Export an SRT and open it in the editor or player you use. Check the same three things there.
- Make one Short and watch the caption animation. The words should light up from right to left.
- Ask support a question in Hebrew and see what comes back.
StreamLive Pro Studio, coming
StreamLive Pro Studio, our desktop app for Windows and Mac, has Hebrew and English with right-to-left layout and titles in Hebrew in its 0.5.0 test version. It is not released, has no public download and no date. Live caption translation is not released there either. See StreamLive Pro Studio for Windows and Mac: download status.
Where StreamLive Pro fits
If your audience speaks Hebrew, StreamLive Pro covers the whole path in Hebrew: going live to several networks from the browser or the phone, then captions, Shorts and posts. If you already produce in OBS or vMix, keep it and send one stream to StreamLive Pro on a paid plan; the captions and Shorts still come out in Hebrew.

Frequently asked questions
Is there live streaming software with a Hebrew interface?
Yes. StreamLive Pro's dashboard, browser studio and phone app work in Hebrew, right to left, and you switch between Hebrew and English in Settings.
Does StreamLive Pro make Hebrew captions?
Yes, after the broadcast. It transcribes Hebrew speech, writes the captions right to left with punctuation and numbers in place, and exports SRT or VTT or burns them in.
Can viewers see Hebrew captions during the live?
Not today. Captions and translation during the broadcast are not available; captions are made on the recording and the Shorts afterwards.
Can I translate Hebrew captions into English?
Yes. Captions can be translated into 143 languages, including English, whole sentences at a time.
Why does my Hebrew SRT show the question mark on the wrong side?
Most often another tool removed the invisible right-to-left mark at the start of each line. Export the file again from StreamLive Pro and avoid re-saving it in a plain text editor.
