Support for captions in live videos now available [Crowd cheers louder]
Mux has expanded its caption support to include live videos, making them more accessible and engaging for a wider audience. Users can now connect their live caption provider to Mux and have captions delivered along with the live stream. To implement live captions, users need to confirm partnership with a live caption provider that supports embedding captions in an RTMP stream using the CEA-608 standard. Currently, live captions support a single language per video from English, Spanish, French, German, Dutch, Portuguese, and Italian. There is no additional cost for adding this feature to live videos, and it's included for all Mux Video customers.
