Hello,

simple question: is it possible to stream a youtube video through mezzmo with captions? If so, how?

Thanks in advance :)

PS: Tried to find anything with mezzmo and youtube captions but it resulted in either "simple" youtube streaming or streaming subtitles for downloaded videos.

EDIT: Viewed pages: http://www.mezzmo.com/wiki/doku.php?id=add_url&s[]=youtube

Also tried searching this forum.

There are parameters that you can add onto your YouTube URLs that turn on captions and set a preferred language:


?cc_lang_pref=<lang-code>&cc_load_policy=1

where <lang-code> is your preferred language code - en=English, fr=French, etc.
