Video Search on YouTube Using Closed Captions

In this video we demonstrate how to use YouTube's video search feature, which allows viewers to search for keyword phrases, see search results that contain the keywords in the closed captioning, and jump directly to the spot in the video where the keywords are spoken. All of this can be enabled by adding closed captions to your videos.

Please note that while this search tool still generates accurate results (the video containing the searched phrase will be number 1 on the results list), currently two of the features are not available on the results: the search phrase highlighted in an excerpt of the captions; and the timestamp/link to the video where the search term was found.
