Add closed captions to an Echo360 recording

From April 2022 the automatic machine-generated transcripts created by Echo360 are automatically added to the lecture recording as closed captions. Staff will need to manually add the transcript to closed captions for any recording added to the system prior to April 2022. It is recommended that closed captions are added to all recordings.
