Sorry James, you are correct, about the pop-up comments, I was just talking about the bubbles. FYI, we have received several complaints from deaf students about the placement of the captions as well as the size, so being able to customize this would be ideal. Having them at the bottom when the comments are toggled off could also work, with the understanding that they would be at the top when using comments (which we don't currently use, because our faculty are not happy that they don't get notified when a comment is made in an Arc video, different Idea).

James, That is just not the case. In most cases with captioning in videos, the text resides toward the bottom of the video, not on the very bottom, where the comment bubbles are located. Furthermore, I would challenge Instructure to update the way comments display vs. change a standard of practice involving ADA compliancy.

Idea is currently in development The captioning in Studio currently resides near the top of a video when cc is enabled. We received a complaint from a student in our program who is hearing impaired that the captions blocked some of the content in the videos she was viewing, and that most close-captioning is located at the bottom of the video making it easier to scan both the content and the text at the same time. She also felt that the font size was too small, and would like the option to increase the size if possible. Adding these features would make this tool better aligned with ADA practices and similar tools available for captioning.
