How to burn in closed captions in a RTMP stream

We need to burn-in closed captions into a RTMP stream so that we have an open captioned stream. Please suggest how it can be done using the Wowza Transcoder.

Thanks

Hi @Virendra Raheja. You can add text (burn in captions) to the stream using a graphic overlay during the transcoding process. See https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-add-graphic-overlays-to-live-streams-with-wowza-transcoder (there’s a specific section about creating text on the video)
