PROBLEM:
(Youtube removed the CC (subtitles) indicator on channels' Videos page that used to show which videos had subtitles. Now, only playlists on a channel's main page display it.)

SOLUTION:
(Restore the CC indicator to channels' Videos page.)

RELEVANCE / SCOPE:
(Many people rely on subtitles to watch Youtube videos and it has become much more tedious to identify subtitled content since they've removed this feature.)

Thank you!

SHORT Table (Summary)
Problem Youtube removed the CC/subtitle indicator from channels' Video page.
Solution Restore the CC/subtitle indicator.

Images for context:

CC (subtitle) indicators are visible under video titles on the channel's main page.

CC indicators are not visible on the channel's /videos page.

I've updated my original post with images highlighting the issue I'm addressing. Previously every channel's /videos page would also show those CC indicators.

@booitsjwu
Thanks!

I don't believe #1523 is talking about the same issue

yes, just believing in links. Trying to connect the conversation about each topic.
Combining all our approaches / visions about captions,
like:
" all about transcript, captions, subtitles,

  • a
  • b
  • c
  • d "
So we'd make the best use of the next session / day of a volunteer developer, who might not personally care about captions, but can solve 3,4,5 things in a row.

ytInitialData does contain "accessibilityData":{"label":"Closed captions"} so at least there is data that can be easily extracted
