how to choose which Closed caption source to use

Hi there … I have a VOD application with both embedded and SRT closed captions enable.

I’ve noticed that if a video has the CC embedded, Wowza serves the CC from it … Is there a way to tell Wowza to use SRT by default source, and in case there’s no SRT file, to use the embedded one?

Thanks

Hello,

It might be best to separate the VOD assets that have and don’t have embedded CC to use another VOD application. This way you will have one VOD application for SRT files and another one for embedded SRT.

I do agree with alex view on this query,separate the VOD assets that have and don’t have embedded CC to use VOD app.If you have any query regarding closed captioning,visit the following link and have a look at the article about closed captioning.
