Does hls.js support cc3 for closed captions?

[ranuser9]

In our tests, hls.js is only displaying cc1 (english). We have a second language on cc3 (cannot change source stream) and cannot access it in hls.js. cc3 is present in the stream however and is verified through VLC and videojs / http-streaming (VHS) lib.

Are we missing a config parameter to access cc3 not supported with hls.js currently?

Thank you!

Hey @ranuser9 - There is support for this coming soon

A PR was opened a little while back implementing this support:
#1729

But it was closed in favour of the solution @johnBartos has in the JWPlayer fork of hls.js

That addition is planned (I think) to be upstreamed to this repo

Noting that this will definitely land in 1.0.0:
#2370

Captions
4 608/708 channels are now supported
