Hi, I may be missing it but does Evolve support automatic closed captions? I’ve moved from another authoring tool that does offer this so I am surprised I can’t find this function?
Thanks!
Hi Melissa, you can include closed captions in any uploaded video content and they are displayed by default - they need to be added in .vtt format.
Is it also possible to use several vtt files, i.e. provide multi-language captions?
Not currently, but you could use Logic and multiple “language” blocks containing the video with it’s associated vtt file and buttons or a radio button option to change between llanguage and hide/show the right block.
Thank you for your feedback, it’s much appreciated. I am aware of the options you’ve mentioned, but was hoping to keep it as simple as possible, considering that multiple .vtt files pose little challenge to many platforms/media players.
One alternative would be to use a video streaming service that supports multiple language captions - for example it looks like Wistia has support for this.
