—Closed Captioning

Kaltura will automatically machine caption videos in English when recorded by or moved into My Media. However, if the spoken language is French, German, Russian, Spanish, or Vietnamese, you will need to request machine captioning in that specific language.

Machine captioning is fast, simple, and decently accurate (75-85%) but may struggle with acronyms and industry-specific words. However, you can edit the machine captions. If an accommodation from the Disability Resource Center (DRC) requires 100% accuracy, you can request human captioning.
