Video Caption 'ON' by default in Rise
I have imported a single VTT file exported from Storyline into a video I have in Rise, other than embedding in the original source, is there an option in Rise to set the default to ON?
Many thanks.

+1 If you can do it in Storyline via a trigger (Set Player.DisplayCaptions to value True when timeline starts on this slide) then the same feature should be available in Rise.
This should be a high priority for the roadmap and be implemented asap. This thread shows how many users need this simple addition, and 2 years later is not good enough. Even if you have to select it for the first video but then it remembers your selection for subsequent videos in a particular training would be better.
Agree 100%. I took a look at the javascript code that generates the subtitles and figured out why we are waiting so long for this feature. It is not as simple as switching subs on/off. It is implemented in much more complicated way. That's also the reason why there isn't any hack available yet.
+1. Rise to set the CC (English) default to ON?
+1 - Our company is requiring more accessible content and this feature would be welcomed.
+1 here as well...
+1 – This is a basic accessibility feature and crucial for translated content that isn't dubbed. Can we please get an update on when this will be implemented?

We localize Rise courses and need the option to default the CC to ON in a specific language. (Some of the courses have more than one language CC per video.)We don't always localize the audio in courses, and in those cases rely on the CC to provide the information from the video. It is disrupting to the learner to have to search for the CC button, apply it, and then start the video over once they've found the CC. Or the learner might just skip/ignore the video altogether and miss important information, if they don't realize there is a CC option.
