I think you will need a third party tool.
Here is one:

Check your PMs. I may have some info for you. I fought this fight in 2010 with a 20 week TV program. Actually the expense and difficulty of the CC mandate by the FCC has just about killed small producers like us from producing local TV programs. I have asked several times for some help from GV in developing a solution for this problem but it seems that it is not requested enough for them to go to the expense of developing a solution. Whether or not you go with the work around that I sent you as a PM, purchase CC software, or work with a captioning company, it will be expensive, difficult and time consuming. Unless you are required to have CC by your countries FCC or the stations that are airing your project I would just leave well enough alone.

That is just my 2 cents worth and by no means a put down on GV. I'm sure that it is simple cost of development weighed against demand.

Take care
