    Silly question - What type of file would the closed caption be?

  • Will Polley

    This request really should have been called subtitles support instead of closed captions as my goal would be to provide translation text and not descriptive language. 

    Here’s a really great article comparing the most common formats.

    I think most of our use cases would be served by the very basic formats like SRT. 

    However, as you introduce more complex scenes such as interviews and panels, the formats such has WebVTT and Timed Text Markup Language would be nice to help differentiate speakers.

    We use .SRT files that we download from from REV.com & Rask.AI

    Thank you for this additional insight! I will add this information to the product card in the roadmap for our team to discuss.
