Trigger display of transcripts
As is possible with closed captions, is it possible to set a transcript to display automatically. I can't find a built in variable to control this, so I assume it isn't possible (yet!)
Best wishes...

you can simulate a user click on the transcript button with javascript
there is a limitation - the button has to be there 🠊 activate "Video Controls: Dark or Light"
(for "Show none" the overlay for transcript is not created at all)
show transcript:
document.querySelector(".video-transcript:not(.enabled)").click();
hide transcript:
document.querySelector(".video-transcript.enabled").click();
toggle transcript:
document.querySelector(".video-transcript").click();
example:
