These instructions explain how to automatically generate live captions (text of the audio content) in your Chrome web browser for most video/audio that lacks captions, live Collaborate sessions, and more.
These instructions will discuss two different solutions for generating live captions. The first solution will use a beta feature built into Google Chrome and the second solution will use a web service called Web Captioner.
Solution #1 is easier to setup set up and doesn't require messing with your Windows audio settings, but the captioning isn't as good and it only captions audio/video playing in Chrome. Solution #2 currently provides improved captioning, can caption audio/video playing from any program on your computer, but it's more complicated to set up and involves changing the behaviour of how the sound settings work in Windows.

Privacy: When using Web Captioner, audio is sent to Google's speech-to-text service and captions are sent back to the browser. For more info read Web Captioner's privacy page.
