# FAQ
I see "the language: XXX model is missing" message and BeMyEars doesn't work.

BeMyEars use Apple's gorgeous CoreML and Speech machine learning framework,
it need to download the language model if it's not installed in your macOS for the first time.
The download job is underneath macOS in the background.
How long it takes to accomplish it depend on your network condition.
In my worst test case, it takes 30 mins. Reboot system may help, what's more important is keep patient.

# The story behind BeMyEars
I work with a colleague who is hearing impaired.
He is an amazing guy, we collaborate well for 8 years.
One day when we were communicating on Slack, I sent him my favorite video link, and he say it has not been subtitled.
Suddenly I realized that I was ashamed of my unintentional offensive behavior.
I wondered if I could do something to help him.
At the same time, I often experience the benefits of captioning when I watch YouTube videos, but I often find that many valuable videos are not captioned, especially for not-so-popular videos and I feel sorry for them.
Therefore, I wanted to have software that could generate subtitles in real-time from the sound in the system.

What's New in Version 4.11

- Add transparency mode, hide subtitle window border
