Caption your videos with the YouTube API
In August last year, we launched the ability to add captions to your videos on YouTube. Now, you can do the same using the YouTube Data API.
With the new captions API, developers can create third-party apps that help users create, upload and manage the caption tracks of their YouTube videos. Each video can have multiple caption tracks, and multiple subtitle formats are supported.
Find out more in our Developer's Guide.

If you want to see some examples of what caption files look like you can also find creative-commons licensed captions from Google's videos here: http://code.google.com/p/google-video-captions/
I have made a lot of videos using the caption feature. The best part about it is the link in the caption to keep viewers on your videos. This is one of my remote control lawn mower videos here if you want an example of how this works.
When are you gonna fix this problem, which concerns a lot of Youtube users?
