Video Captions

Captions can be added to any video asset in DAM. This ensures that the proper caption file remains connected to the related video asset. 

Note: It is an accessibility standard that all videos uploaded to Michigan State University affiliated channels need to be accessible. Captions can be burned in to the video or uploaded separately to a channel that supports captioning. See Video Accessibility for more information.

Instructions

To add captions:

  1. Navigate to the Video Asset Details page
  2. Locate the “Video subtitles” panel in the middle column
