Ideas for Arc XP

The Video Center caption field should with standard Themes video player

As a viewer, I want the additional context provided by a caption and video credit to understand the content of the video. The current standard Themes video player does not display the contents of the Video Center caption field -- where the data is usually included. A viewer would expect the caption to render below the player. Having this information on the page also would benefit SEO.


I have attached a screenshot of a standard Arc Themes video player and a video player in non-Themes Arc, which displays the Caption field.

    Hi Kurt, thank you for the idea! This came in a while back ( TM-I-43) and is currently slotted for our next release on April 20th. I will update once the functionality is deployed.
