Closed Captions Analytics

Hi, we wish to be able to show how our videos are helping students from a universal design for learning perspective and in order to back this up we need any evidence of students using technology which supports their learning. If there was a way to show i.e. "20% of students watched this video with cc" - this would greatly help our use case and other business cases on campus.

I believe this should be something that can be collected through Google Analytics using player events. I do something similar with VSP rates to track which options are used most in the players.
With that said, as Panopto implements new features in analytics, it would be great to see more native tracking for this sort of information.
I don't know one institution that wouldn't benefit from this ability. Especially in countries where there is legislation around this.
I see that this request was marked as completed, but as far as I'm aware, there haven't been any releases that include Closed Captioning usage metrics (or really any metrics about closed captioning at all).
Did I miss something from a release, or is this incoming?
100% agreed. This is something we'd like to see.
Thanks for everyone's feedback on this feature! Caption Analytics was in internal testing last week, which is why I was marked completed. This will be available to everyone by Monday, March 9th, as part of the current release.
