Index of Captioned Videos
If you’re like me, you search for captioned video on a per site basis. For example, you use Hulu’s cc only caption feature, Google Video’s show captioned videos only feature and YouTube’s “closed captioned” type feature.
Even these search tools are not perfect. For example, I added subtitles to all of my YouTube videos, but they don’t show up on YouTube’s caption search. Why? Because I didn’t upload a separate file with captions. They were already in there when I uploaded it. I have no way (that I know of) to identify the video as captioned. 22frames.com did.
22frames aims to index every single captioned and subtitled video. Not only that. 22frames also includes videos that you can enjoy without hearing audio. Instead of going to the Hulus and YouTubes and searching for captions or watchable videos, you can go to 22frames rest assured you’ll enjoy every video (well, unless its content is lousy).
Love and appreciate this site! Learn more about 22frames.

I did that to some extent with http://billc.vodspot.tv and captioned internet search http://ccmovies.org/fsearch.php?terms=search
Glad to see someone putting more time and effort into it.
