Hi, the VAST 4.1 specification introduced closed captioning support.

Videojs-ima doesn't seem to support them at all. This is important to us because we have a large number of users seeing the ads without audio (about 80%) and also a considerable number of deaf users. We'd like to provide an adequate ad experience to the users in these scenarios as best as we can.

Hi,

The VAST Standard support is brought to the plugin by the IMA SDK for HTML5 which currently doesn't support this feature. You can open a ticket and request support for this feature on the IMA SDK Support forum.

Thanks, I'll do that.
