Closed captions provide text descriptions of the audio for audience members who cannot hear the audio (or hear it well). Mediasite includes its own automated captioning service, Mediasite Captioning Powered by Vidable.
My Mediasite also allows you to submit captioning requests through captioning services using an existing account. Mediasite supports the following captioning services: AI Media, Amberscript, Automatic Sync Technologies® (AST), 3Play Media, 3Play Media-ASR (Automated Speech Recognition), Cielo 24, Verbit, and IBM Watson Speech to Text service using an existing account.
Use the Caption Editor to update your captions as needed. Contact your Mediasite administrator or captioning service provider for more information on the captioning service processing times and other details.
