Auto transcript transcribing wrong language

I have a 30 min TV video spoken in clear Dutch. Somehow the transcript feature is transcribing it in English. Never had problems with this before. Also I've tried changing the transcription preferences to Dutch and turned off and on the 'enable language auto-detection'. I hope this can be resolved.

Thanks Stan! You're solution worked. The Dutch language hadn't been downloaded before.

@Cablai366506290m8o,

 

You've filed this as a Beta version bug. What version/build of the Beta are you using?

 

It is not clear to me that you are getting the option to select a language when you transcribe.

 

In the Project Panel, right-click on one of your clips. If it has not been transcribed, pick "Transcribe." If it has already been transcribed, pick "Re-Transcribe." 

 

In the dialogue that appears, pick the version of Danish you want. If it shows a "cloud"/download icon, it has not been downloaded.

 

Does it then transcribe correctly?
