Yoruba (Èdè Yorùbá): Latin-script output; tone diacritics are attempted but deserve review — tone carries meaning in Yoruba. Code-switching with English — universal in Lagos recordings — is handled.
Sermons in particular: Timestamps make it easy to pull the key passage for the bulletin. Sermon archives, devotionals and accessibility for the congregation.
