Text tracks not working #41

Closed rtkac closed 1 year ago

rtkac commented 2 years ago

Hi everyone, could someone help me how to make text tracks working on airplay? The problem is that I'm not able to see text tracks in the airplay subtitles option.

I'm using .vtt subtitles, which are working on Chrome browser or iOS (Safari) devices.

Thanks a lot!

I have found the limitations here https://docs.theoplayer.com/faq/71-what-are-the-limitations-of-AirPlay.md

AirPlay does not support some closed captions and subtitle formats, including CEA-608 and [sideloaded (WebVTT) subtitles](https://docs.theoplayer.com/how-to-guides/10-texttrack/04-how-to-insert-subtitles.md). Instead, you must use subtitles that are supported natively.
