hi, In the readme section I just see vtt format in the subtitle, can I use srt format as a subtitle? I have tried srt format and it's not working, If I Can't use srt format, is there any way to play srt format in react-player?

Hi @cookpete , I tried to add subtitles as per example, but it is not working for me. Can you give me a hand?
