    I already tried to use
    subtitle=’http://*’
    subtitle url=
    captionUrl=

    Is this options not available for the wordpress plugin?

    Thanks in advance

    Hello Ricky,

    Flowplayer supports <track> element, but currently it’s only supported by following browsers:

    IE 10 (since November 2011)
    Google Chrome 18 (since November 2011)
    Safari 6 (July 2012)
    Opera 12.5 (August 2012)

    We will give it a test next week and then we can add it into our plugin.

    Thanks,
    Martin

    How do you use the <track> element?

    Martin 12 years ago

    Hello dawn,

    this will be in the next version which should be released today.

    Thanks,
    Martin

    Does that mean I’d have to pay for a new version in order to be able to use captions?

    Thanks

    Hello Dawn,

    the new version is available for download and also in automated updates now. To use its subtitle feature, just add subtitle=”{url}” into the shortcode, or user the shortcode editor (you however need to enable the subtitles field in Settings -> FV WordPress Flowplayer -> Interface Options first).

    You can use our plugin for free, but of course we would be happy if you decide you want the licensed version with no branding or if you need any help and we can provide pro support.

    Thanks,
    Martin

    Thanks Martin!

    Just to make sure I have this right… Is “subtitles” the same as captions? What url am I pointing to? Is this a file, if so, what kind of file?

    Thanks so much for all of your help and your quick replies!
