Can I display YouTube video subtitles/captions?


If you are using Flockler’s Slideshow for digital screens and have enabled the 'autoplay' option for videos, you can choose to show subtitles/captions too. While the sound of the video can’t be played without user interaction, enabling the subtitles/captions helps viewers follow what’s going on in the video.

Here’s how to enable YouTube video subtitles/captions:

  • Navigate to the 'Display' tab
  • If you don’t have a Slideshow for digital screens yet, click the 'Add a new layout' button

  • Next, click the 'Edit styles and settings' link

  • Enable both 'Autoplay for videos' and 'Subtitles for YouTube videos' for videos

Save changes, and your Slideshow will show subtitles/captions on YouTube videos

❗Please note: Autoplay is included in the Pro plan and above. You’re welcome to explore our pricing page or reach out to us directly. We’ll be happy to share all the details.
