Subtitles & Captions

dash.js has support for multiple subtitling and captioning formats including VTT captions, embedded CEA 608/708 captions, and TTML EBU timed text tracks. Additionally, dash.js has a mechanism for consuming subtitle events so subtitles can be rendered separately, outside of dash.js.

Multiple samples demonstrating subtitle handling in dash.js can be found in our sample section. For more detailed usage instructions check the links below:
