Guides, news, and tips to get the most from Aurora Subtitles.
Music comes from the PC too: prepare the audio before captioning
When several sources play on your PC, prepare a single-voice test before captioning in Aurora. Choosing System does not establish per-app audio isolation.
No suggestion arrives: check whether you chose manual help
Aurora defaults to manual help. Check the mode, Both session and access before treating the absence of automatic suggestions as a fault.
The meter is moving: check which voice Aurora is receiving
An active meter does not identify the voice: test system audio, microphone and Both with distinct phrases before a meeting.
The suggested answer sounds good: check that the experience is yours
A fictional rehearsal for checking who did what in a suggested answer, with concrete guidance, a follow-up check and optional-assistance limits.
The caption says “compile”: do not paste a translation into your terminal
Captions explain the action; the script name stays in the project. An npm example for checking the exact command before typing it.
You need captions, not a recording: prepare Aurora for a meeting without OGG
Captions, text activity, OGG recording and connected assistance: prepare a meeting while keeping each control separate and not assuming OFF deletes files.
Before asking Aurora for help, decide what context you want to share
How to choose between local captions and connected assistance, with a preparation example and clear boundaries for shared context.
The caption covers Pause: moving it and letting clicks through are separate choices
Separate Aurora overlay placement, position lock and click-through with a playback-control example. Check readability and interaction separately.
The question changed while advice was arriving: answer the current one
Check whether a suggestion still answers the current question, with a fictional exchange and three checks before making a commitment.
Your voice stays out of the overlay: check it before sharing session text
A Both session text can include your microphone even when the overlay omits it. Prepare a review before sharing.
The audio is Spanish: the target selector does not change Compatibility’s English source
Separate incoming speech from the language you want to read when choosing Maximum Compatibility or Maximum Quality, without accuracy promises.
Taking your laptop: one Aurora licence still covers one PC
Before taking Aurora on a laptop, separate the installer from a one-installation, one-PC licence. Compatibility, activation and specific questions for support.
