Banjo's World: Captioned Superbowl Ads!

As many of you may be aware of, they don't often caption or subtitle TV advertisements online for the deaf and hard of hearing. That was always the case with Superbowl ads ever since they started airing them online on a yearly basis following the Super Bowl event.

Today, that is no longer the case. I received an e-mail from John Erskine, the co-founder of ProjectReadon.com. They are captioning a number of Superbowl ads for everyone on the internet. John has assured me that they will be captioning even more Superbowl ads as they become available online.

This is weird... I have to click on the commercial selection twice to make it captioned.

For instance, the page loads up with the original Sunsilk commercial. I click on the Justin Timberlake Pepsi commercial link. The page loads and the video plays, but it's not captioned. I click on the link again and the page loads, but it's now captioned. This goes for all the video links.

Anyone having this problem?

Try refresh button, and it is worked, if again not, try again. If there's captioning, and that is problem solved! ;)
Sometimes, it is not working. I don't know why.

My fave singer is Lionel Richie "Hello" since when I was young. my real mother always listen to it everyday, so I fell in love with that song ever since.

If you want the music video to be in closed caption, copy and paste any youtube links or other links and paste it on where it says "request a video" .

The refresh button takes me back to the default commercial. :(
