Live Closed Captioning
Our virtual event platform, Crowdcast, is still working on providing built-in closed captioning. In the meantime, Google Chrome users can now use the new “Live Caption” feature. When enabled, Live Captions automatically appear in a small, moveable box at the bottom of your browser when you’re watching or listening to a piece of content where people are talking. Live Captions can be enabled in the latest version of Chrome by going to Settings, then the “Advanced” section, and then “Accessibility.”
All of our salons will also be uploaded to Youtube and made available through our store. Youtube now includes closed captioning. Simply hit the “CC” icon on the navigation bar on the bottom of your video player.
