I embedded a YouTube video and added parameters as mentioned in this article. This is what I put <iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/Code?autoplay=1&cc_lang_pref=es&cc_load_policy=1" title="YouTube video player" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; allow='autoplay'; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen=""></iframe>.
My goal is to have the video play with cc in Spanish. When I publish, the video displays and autoplays, but it does not show cc or set the default cc language to Spanish. Can anyone help?
It may be that you are not using the correct language code, as the available subtitles are Spanish (Latin America) es-419 and Spanish (Mexico) es-MX. Try using those codes in your embed. I think the es code is reserved for Spanish.

Hi Brandon,
Thanks for reaching out!
I took a look at the video and saw that Spanish isn't an available subtitle language for the video.
Try choosing a video with Spanish subtitles available and let me know if this works for you!
Thanks. I will find one. Is there a script to run the auto-translate in Spanish or do you have to have Spanish subtitles?
Hi Jose,
I work with Brandon. Here is the link for the video in Spanish (Mexico and Latin America, English and French). Could you please try with that one?

Thanks,

For example, this embed code will load with Spanish (Mexico)
Thank you, Sam, I was using ISO-639.1 or .2
I appreciate your help. It is working now!!!
