Is it possible to turn on closed captions on a video when it is being displayed in Firefox? There used to be an add on, but it seems to be gone now.

Usually a video's controls would include CC if the site has them available. Is there a site where it doesn't show up but you know they have captions available? Do the controls look different in Firefox vs. Chrome?

Hello Joe_Bigler,

This add-on says :

" Play subtitles and closed captions on any videos online in your preferred language. Fully integrated with Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, YouTube, Dailymotion, and Vimeo. "
