Playback Speed

Selecting the settings wheel on the video tool bar (where you play/pause/etc) will give the option for the user to select the video playback speed. The smaller numbers represent slower speeds, while the higher numbers represent faster speeds. The default setting, 1, is the actual playback speed of the video.

Closed Captioning

For those who need subtitles, the CC in a box to the immediate right of the settings wheel gives options for closed captions. These captions will appear across the bottom of the screen and can be delivered in multiple playback languages.

We are always adding new languages based on the needs of our users - if you have a language request, you can reach out to support@kira-learning.com and we can pass it along to our product team.

Video Transcripts

For those who prefer to read or require text transcripts for accessibility purposes, you can access them by clicking the box with lines to the immediate right of the closed caption button.

Transcripts also allow you to select from a variety of languages to match - or not - your closed captions.
