My suggestion is to let plex use speech to text technology to generate closed caption, cc subtitles to apply on Podcast and live-tv and non-subtitles videos. Thank you ---

There’s already an existing feature suggestion asking for this functionality. I recommend you comment/vote in that thread in order to avoid distracting/dispersing votes. > [@Auto-Generated Captions (like on YouTube)](https://forums.plex.tv/t/auto-generated-captions-like-on-youtube/737572): > > I spend a good amount of time trying to find subtitles for my TV and movie libraries. Sometimes I am able to find them on the major subtitles websites, or using the subtitle search feature of Plex. However, for the (majority of) times where I am unsuccessful, it would be great if Plex could take a stab at using speech-recognition software, to auto-generate captions. This feature exists on YouTube, and I find it extremely helpful, even with the inevitable mistakes. Is there any way this could … I’ll therefore close this thread as a duplicate. ---
