Adding closed captions to a video in Echo360

Before sharing your content, you should ensure its accessibility by enabling closed captions. Echo360 automatically creates a transcript of video content uploaded to the platform. Because this is created using automatic speech recognition (ASR), you will need to read and edit the transcript to ensure its accuracy.

  1. Find your video in your Echo360 library and click on the ellipses (three dots) on the right hand side.

4. Once you have saved your edited transcript, click Apply to CC. You will see a pop-up asking you confirm. To confirm, click Apply.
