I need to show the close caption for the video.
I can't seem to be able to find a sample for this purpose.

thanks

Hello,

If you are displaying the video via PlayCtrl, you can use the AllowedStreams property and set the StreamFormatType to a Closed caption stream. This should make it so that this is the stream that is selected. Here is some documentation that provides an example of this which are great resources:
