Hi all,
Actually this is a better link. It shows how to use the adobe
caption pods in adobe connect.
https://blogs.adobe.com/connectsupport/how-to-use-adobe-connect-captioning-closed-caption-pod/
According to this site, the Adobe caption pods which are
extensions are available free of charge to Adobe Connect
customers. With the Adobe Connect Closed Caption Pods extension
from Adobe ensures that participants who are deaf or hard of
hearing may fully participate in online meetings and events.
To download the pod/extension click on this link

Meeting organizers hire professional captioning services from
providers such as the Media Access Group at WGBH, Caption
Colorado, and Caption First. Professional stenographers join the
Adobe Connect meeting or teleconference to listen to the audio
and transcribe the information using specialized stenographer’s
keyboards. This information is transmitted to a captioning
server, This YouTube video shows how it is done. They are using
Caption Colorado when we will be using Caption First for our
demo
The captions are transmitted to the Adobe Connect Meeting and
viewed by the end users. Meeting participants have the ability
to customize the caption font size and color settings to enhance
readability. Participants can even skip back to re-read previous
captions and then fast forward to the current captions.
Participants may individually choose to display or not to
display captions on their individual screen. Participants can
optionally save the captions as a transcript and download them
at the conclusion of a meeting.
We will be testing two such pods at an upcoming Tech Task Force
Meeting. This one from Adobe and also one from Caption First, one
of the vendors that work with Adobe.
Best,
Judith
