Closed caption stuck on screen

[mark469]

First of all thanks for creating this solution, its really mind blowing how you guys able to pull this off.

Just want to ask one issue Im getting when using this solution, during the live stream the closed caption is stuck on the screen for very long and its not updating.

To reproduce:

• Stream some music
• Wait till it generate some caption
• If the music has long instrumental segment (or you switch medialive input to some instrumental music), it will stop generating new caption.
• The same caption will stay at the screen for very long (the vtt file were being generate with the same content but different end time)
• Switch medialive input to some people talking and the caption will now be updated.

Is there a way to hide the last generated caption and not show it indefinitely when there's no new caption being generated.

Thanks
Mark
