Description James Craig 2014-02-28 00:44:23 PST

webkitHasClosedCaptions and webkitClosedCaptionsVisible are on HTMLMediaElement, but should be on HTMLVideoElement. It doesn't make sense for an audio element to have captions, so this interface should be limited to video.

These attributes have been on HTMLMediaElement since 2009, and are widely used on a number of large sites. I am not sure it is worth moving them to HTMLVideoElement.

FWIW, text tracks are on HTMLMediaElement.
