Closed captioning for Dynamic Media video file

We are trying to add closed captioning to a video file.  We use Dynamic Media and the DM component.  I have the vtt file created and in the asset manager.  Is there a DM player that will incorporate the closed captioning?  We are on AEM 6.2.  Thank you.

Hi,

There isnt any OOTB feature to automatically add caption to your video, you need to add a parameter in viewer modifier in DM Component. something like below:

&caption=<scene7_company_name>/<path_of_caption>/<caption_name>.vtt,1   //1 means Caption will be enabled at start of video, to disable make it 0

However you can automate this process by overlaying DM component and by adding modifier programmatically at runtime.

Happy to help

Is this functionality available only in Scene7 Dynamic Media mode?
