Video Podcasts on the Video iPod are files that QuickTime can play, but they
are not capable of supporting a text track which is what is usually used for
captioning. You could combine the captioning on top of the video, but it
could not be accessed as a text track would with a QuickTime movie. It
would simply be text imposed on top of a picture.<clip>
