Turn on Captioning without streaming or recording #128

Feature Request:

It would be nice to turn on the captioning without streaming or recording. The use case is I use OBS with NDI as a remote monitor. The captioning is to a text object on screen. This is for the hearing impaired people attending our conferences. I can just delete the records later but it would be nice to just display the text without having to click record.

Sounds good I'll think about making that easier, but in the meantime you can already get it to caption when offline by hitting "Show Preview" bottom left in the Settings, and as long as that caption preview window is open it should caption even if its minimzed.

I found the preview works and was going to come in and put that but you beat me to it.

Thanks for the plugin!
