'Youtube recommends subtitle workshop', became 'Eugene recommends subtitle workshop', you'd think they'd get their own name right! :P

Subtitles can be in ...
Subtitles can be in the same language, it omits the nuances such as (door slam). Closed caption and open caption will include things such as, (ominous theme playing), or (dog barking).This helps those who are Deaf/HoH know what is going on in a movie or show. Unfortunately, the beta caption thing on youtube is awful. CC or subtitles should be an option for those who need it and to prevent those who don't want it from complaining about it.

Since learning that youtube actually have captions I went on search engines searching to see if I can stream movies and tv programs online and have it close captioned especially in Canada. So far I have found out that nexflix has a poor amount of close captioned programs and no listing of captioned programs and other sites does not have close captions at all. I know that youtube isnt exactly a streaming site but as Deaf person I am thinking that your site is a winner for starting this.

My problem is that youtube wont work for videos that support cc. So basically, if it has the little red box with cc option, the play button shows up as a grey box and I cant press it....I cant load the damn video or anything. I might just quit youtube, its gotten really gay under google control. Many better tube sites available now days.

hey rewboss, I've just put closed captioning in one of my videos, but it seems it is effecting the video streaming. Any advice?

He says "you can do this with a simple text editor if you're geeky enough." I bet you that makes most people assume they can't type their own, but if you take a close look at 1:03, it's not all that complicated. =^p Or maybe I'm geekier than I thought I was... Btw, thanks a bunch rewboss! I would've never figured out the Closed Caption system without this! ^_^
