I want to format a .VTT file I am using to lay subtitles over a video. I was able to load the .VTT file fine. The timing is fine but I cannot get all the formatting I have in the .VTT file to show on the finished view. Bold and underline work fine, but I would like to include itilac {<i>, </i> } as well as font style, size etc… Everything defaults to center justification for both the cue box and the overlay on the video. I want to change that as well.
I tried creating a statement at the top of the VTT file
::cue {background: #4184c5; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; Font-size: 16; Text-align: Left;}
I have also tried adding commands after the time stamp
00:12.000 --> 00:16.000 line:5 position:30% align:left size:54%
and even tried adding the italic tag into the subtitle
<b>Welcome to <i>"My Company"</i>.</b>
In this video you will learn <u>how to create and use dashboard filters</u>.
The only thing that has ever worked are the bold and underline tags. I’m not exactly a coder so I could be doing something wrong that is really obvious. How do you format/customize subtitles?
