CAPTIONS PLUGIN

The Easiest Way to Add Captions to YouTube Videos You Don’t Own

The captions plugin is a free tool that lets you add closed captions or multilingual subtitles to almost any video, even if it’s on someone else’s YouTube channel. It’s the easiest way to add captions to youtube videos you don’t own.

Works Almost Anywhere

The captions plugin works out of the box with many different video players, even those that don’t support captions or subtitles.

Easy Installation

To install the captions plugin, log into your 3Play Media account and copy the embed code, which is dynamically generated based on your video player and the features you enable. After you paste the embed code in your web page, the plugin will automatically communicate with the video player. You can have multiple captions plugins working with different video players on a single web page. The captions data and search are hosted by 3Play Media.
