We now support subtitles and closed captions! [Crowd cheers]

What's this blog post about?

The latest update from October 13, 2021, introduces caption support for live video streaming. This feature is not only compliant with FCC regulations but also enhances accessibility for users with hearing disabilities and extends the reach of content to international audiences by offering subtitles in multiple languages. Furthermore, it can drive user engagement as many viewers prefer watching videos without sound. The difference between subtitles and closed captions lies in the latter's inclusion of transcriptions of sounds like music or sound effects. To add these features to your video, simply send us the files alongside your video file. This feature is available for all Mux Video customers at no additional cost.
