Also having this issue. I have tried adding the word ‘programme’ and forgetting ‘program’ manually in spell check settings, still reverts to US English. Have tried all steps above.

Hi TBB_Films,

 

We're sorry to hear about this. Is the option for language reverting under the Transcript menu > Spell Check > Spell check settings, or does it stay the same but insist on US spellings? Could you please also share screenshots of a few examples which we can share with the product team?

 

Thanks,

Sumeet

Hi Louis36147749prwl,

Could you please confirm if the Default language is set to English (UK) under Edit > Preferences > Media Analysis & Transcription?

 

Thanks,

Sumeet
