How to link youtube video without captions?


Is it possible to link youtube videos in HTML code without showing it's captions (subtitles)?

Let's say I have following video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kTvHIDKLFqc . It has default english subtitles. However, when linking this video, I want to load it without them. Is there a possibility to do so with some kind of parameter in video?

I found this link with description how to do it, but it doesn't seem to work. If I try to use following format of link, it shows captions anyway: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kTvHIDKLFqc&cc_load_policy=0. Is it not working or did I misunderstand anything?


Solution

  • I found the documentation to be a little misleading in that setting &cc_load_policy=1 does not show the closed captions by default, but enables toggling with the cc button in the video control bar when entered as shown here -
