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?
Hi there, Trevor. The video player is designed to ask viewers to select the caption language rather than launching captions by default. There isn't a way to change that right now.
We'd love that to happen too - as all the essential information is displayed in our captions, and some users will simply not know to turn them on and phone us asking for the instructions we've carefully captioned (we use Rise to make self-installation videos for scientific instrumentation). Having an option to turn them ON - and in a specified language - by default would fix this. Can this feature be added to your features request list please?
Can we get this on the Roadmap please? We use translated subtitled in our translated Rise course and if they're not on by default it looks like the videos are not localised.

Hi Stuart,
We're tracking this request, but it's not on our immediate roadmap right now. Thanks for letting us know this option is important for you!
Any updates on this? We need to have the option to have closed captioning on by default.
Hi Michael, no updates for this yet. We'll be sure to reach out here if we make any changes that help!
+1 for this feature!

Yes, please can this be added to the roadmap - users are not necessarily aware that captions are an option
