i just signed up for your Lessons, wondering where the closed caption would be? I am hard of hearing and need the caption which we asked earlier if it was captioned. Thanks
Hi, Willie. Closed Captioning is a feature available in the enhanced video player when you access the website from a PC using the Chrome web browser. The feature doesn’t work on mobile devices or in some other web browsers.
Also, this specific lesson doesn’t include the enhanced player (looping/speed controls). But all the tune lessons include the enhanced player.
Hopefully that’s helpful, sir!
