Is anyone else having trouble with captioning videos created within Canvas using Amara?  I'd prefer to use YouTube to caption, but I don't think there's a way to save the video created with Canvas to upload to YouTube.

Good question  @cmillion435 ‌, I assume you are working to embed the Amara videos into a Canvas page, is that right? 

If so, there are instructions on this page: 

How to integrate Amara with my website?

Basically, you would need to add this code: 

<script type="text/javascript" src='https://amara.org/embedder-iframe'> </script>

Into the Global Javascript for your Canvas site. Instructions for editing that file are at https://community.canvaslms.com/docs/DOC-10862-4214724282 

An alternative would be link link out to play the video on the Amara site.
