Support for TimedText as part of Extension:TimedMediaHandler? #71

I saw this task, and wondered if that could be related to TimedText (subtitles for videos) not displaying inside the media player? In theory you should be able to turn on closed captioning for this file of mine but the subtitles don't show up. The console displays a "Text Track parsing errors for undefined" on the above page, but I couldn't find anything useful in the server logs. I did add the code from the other task to LocalSettings but it didn't help.

It shouldn't be. TimedText are regular pages stored in the wiki, it shouldn't matter where the videos are stored.

Setting $wgAWSRepoZones['transcoded'] (mentioned in #66) is essential for transcoding to work at all, but this has nothing to do with subtitles.

Ok, I'll close this then. I'm not sure how to fix this but I also don't have much of a reason to use the feature. If I ever figure it out I'll update this comment.
