Closed captioning a video file

The last thing that you will do in this chapter is to add Closed Captions to the video file you imported on slide 22 of the takeTheTrain.cptx project:

Note that you can add Closed Captions to a video file only if it has been imported as a Slide Video.
  1. Still in the Chapter13/takeTheTrain.cptx project, use the Filmstrip to return to slide 22. It is the slide where you imported the video file in Chapter 3, Working with Multimedia.
  2. Go to the Slide Notes panel. If it is not open, use the Window | Slide Notes option to open it.
  3. Click the + sign to add a new note.
  4. Type Now, it is time for the departure using a very precise procedure.
  1. Click the + sign one more time and type First the train attendant whistles and closes all the doors but one.
  2. Click the + sign for the third and last time and type If you are late, this is your very last chance to board the train.

This video is a lot longer and requires more Closed Captions. For this exercise, we will add captions...
