      Bonsoir,
      Je voudrais savoir si il y a une possibilité d’obtenir le sous titre en français sous la vidéo “hollywood oscars cake” afin de pouvoir plus facilement l’utiliser. Sur you tube cela fonctionne mais sur celle-ci rien à faire. Je n’ai ni Cc ni sous titre dans les paramètres.
      Je vous remercie pour votre aide.
