Adding an in-course option to globally toggle closed captions on/off.

I know that you can set closed captions to be automatically on or off at the title level. But either option can be a distraction for those who want / don't want them on. Is there a way that we can add some sort of button at the beginning of the course that gives the user the option to have all closed captions turned either on or off?

Thank you!
Do you by any chance know if there's a way to get the VarTriCCState to be remembered by the browser/LMS?
To save the state you will need to set to a user variable. Add a user variable in the Variable Manager and set it to Retain variable value between sessions. Then you can set up some actions that do things conditionally based on your variable. For instance if your variable is named CCON :
On Page Show -> Show the Turn CC Off for the course button IF CCON is Empty
On Page Show -> Show the Turn CC On for the course button IF CCON is Empty
On Page Show -> Run JavaScript -> VarTriCCState.set(VarCCON.getValue()) IF CCON is Not Empty
The Turn CC Buttons would also do a Modify Variable Action that set CCON to en or none.
Hope this helps.
