Can't hide Transcript from viewer without also hiding captions
We’ve run into a limitation with Clips and Zoom Video Management. Currently, it is not possible to hide the transcript panel without also disabling closed captions.
We have an instructor who would like captions to remain available for accessibility reasons but does not want students to have access to the full transcript. Their concern is that transcripts can be easily copied and pasted into AI tools to generate summaries, allowing students to bypass engagement with the video content.
Zoom recently introduced an option to hide transcripts within embedded videos, which is a step in the right direction. However, the embed still includes a direct link to the clips page, where the transcript remains accessible. As a result, students can still view and copy the transcript despite it being hidden in the embedded player.
Has anyone found a workaround for providing captions while preventing access to the full transcript?
