Closed Captions (remake)
This is a remake of a video I made about closed captions, updated to reflect subsequent changes. This is a basic introduction to closed captions on YouTube for those who are not aware of their existence. Sound effects by Soundsnap http://soundsnap.comCategory: Howto

Thanks! I've been wondering why CC is always unavailable for ages... Now I changed my MacBook's language settings from German to English and it's working :)

Did you know that people with an English OS can see the CC-Translate and then all the automatic language translation options, and people with a French OS can see something different like: CC is not available. I just found out with one of my students who shared via skype her screen of a french OS. My OS is Dutch-English and I can see the CC-translate into french whereas she doesnt. How strange is that? Any hints on how to overcome this or is this a bug or illogic in youtube?

Hello! I saw your old video a while back and made some subtitles. This new video is better because: 1. It says "Hello! My name is Andrew" in swedish 2. It tells what format to save them in. Thanks :)

@videobucs yes, u can.. @videobucs no.. not only user that can choose to see or not the CC, but the uploader also can choose, just put the tag yt:cc=on on the tag section and the CC will load automatically when a user view the video.. I used it on my videos (not all my videos have CC) here's an example of my video that CC loads automatically: youtube.com/watch?v=G7aRIv4nXg8 (sorry cuz the video is in malay and uploaded such a very long time ago but the CC is in English)

As far as I Know youtube does not support this feature. Only the user can choose to see or not the CC.

Go on your internet ...
Go on your internet browser's website and download the latest version, e.g, I use Firefox so I go on the mozilla firefox website and follow download prompts. Apparently, missing/demented/stubborn-beyond-comprehension captions are an out-dated browser problem...

I don't know about your computer, but I think that upgrading your flash/video player or browser helps. that's what happened to me.
