The issue I am having is being able to produce the CC button when I have captions.  Tried rendering video with captions in place and no CC button appears in the player.  Is there a certain setting I must do or missing?  I have v15.4 of Premiere Pro.

Also, Candy, what player are you viewing the export in?

Hi, got the closed caption button to show, had to re-install 14.0 version, but now I cant get captions to show on preview before rendering for the embed output file.  It seems I cant have the closed captioning button and captions to show at the same time.  I have it set to 708 service 1 and I tried the 608

I meant after the whole video is rendered I cant have a closed caption button (CC) and captions show at the same time.  YouTube has a closed caption button, how come Premiere Pro cant have closed caption button show after rendering.  Camtasia does have where you can choose to show a CC buton.


To be clearer about some of the terms, you refer to the video being "rendered" (a process that happens inside PR). You are actually referring to the video being "exported" to a separate file.

 

Youtube adds many "buttons" to their "player" that is used to display a video file. Yes, there is a CC button, just as there is a "Settings" button, a full screen button, etc. - but none of them are "in" the video file. 

 

Camtasia provide a player option. But the video file itself from camtasia does not have a button.

Hey there Candyce,

Sorry about that. In the Export Settings dialog box, under Captions, which choice did you select? Sidecar, burn-in, or embed? What was your output format? Or is it set to "None?" Let me know.

 

Thanks,
Kevin

I have chosen sidecar...haven't tried embed and I didn't want to choose burn because I want the students to have the option to turn off closed captioning in the video.
