Closed captioning in English has been added to the October 2011 general conference videos on LDS.org. This is the first time that videos on LDS.org have offered closed captioning.

This new feature will allow deaf or hard-of-hearing members to enjoy their conference experience more fully. To turn the closed captioning on and off, just click the CC icon in the player window.

In the past, closed captioning has been offered for the live broadcast on television and satellite, but not on the Church’s website. Archived general conference content on LDS.org has included conference videos in American Sign Language (available by selecting ASL from the language drop-down menu), but not everyone who is deaf or hard of hearing knows or uses ASL.

Other closed-captioned material from the Church currently includes Mormon Messages on the Mormon Channel on YouTube.
