Describe the feature
Enable closed captions for videos uploaded from local sources. Supporting closed captions embedded within the media file (internal) and separate caption files (external) would improve accessibility for hearing-impaired participants in meetings. Additionally, this feature can be useful for displaying lyrics for locally created music videos. Support for external closed caption files should include, at minimum, support for VTT and SRT files.

Additional context
Enabling closed captions for videos sourced from local files is essential. By providing support for both internal captions embedded in the media and external caption files, we can ensure that hearing-impaired members can fully engage in meetings. Furthermore, this feature enhances the experience of locally created music videos by displaying lyrics, making them more enjoyable and inclusive for all viewers. I am hearing impaired, and the lack of captioning is a barrier to considering FreeShow for our church.
