identifyLanguage

Enables automatic language identification for your transcription.

If you include IdentifyLanguage, you can optionally include a list of language codes, using LanguageOptions, that you think may be present in your audio stream. Including language options can improve transcription accuracy.

You can also include a preferred language using PreferredLanguage. Adding a preferred language can help Amazon Transcribe identify the language faster than if you omit this parameter.

If you have multi-channel audio that contains different languages on each channel, and you've enabled channel identification, automatic language identification identifies the dominant language on each audio channel.

Note that you must include either LanguageCode or IdentifyLanguage or IdentifyMultipleLanguages in your request. If you include more than one of these parameters, your transcription job fails.

Streaming language identification can't be combined with custom language models or redaction.
