Once a presentation is created, you will need to add closed captions. All Mediasite players will support presentations with closed captions. Mediasite has an integrated automated transcription service, or you can manually upload a caption file. If your presentation was created with the CarmenZoom integration, the audio transcript will be imported with the recording and displayed as closed captions.

- Automated captions must be reviewed for accuracy. For your presentation to be compliant, you must review the captions created by the automated transcription process for accuracy.
Your captions will have a Confidence rating displayed at the top of the Edit Captions window. The confidence rating is unrelated to the accuracy of the captions and does not reflect accessibility standards. You must edit to your captions to be compliant.Image
