Thanks for the app.

It would be possible, but would require some work.

Some questions to answer before committing towards the feature
Who would be implementing this? me, you or a combination of both
What would the UI and UX be like from uploading to consuming a video with subtitles?
Which subtitle file format would be supported?
Which subtitle options would be supported? - only colour, size and font?
Default subtitle option?

Rough idea on how to implant

Manually upload subtitles

• client: upload subtitles button - available at video edit mode
• backend: upload subtitle file to specified video folder
• backend: connect subtitles with related video database
• client: if subtitles detected after opening video add text tracks
• backend: When video gets delete make sure subtitles also get deleted

Subtitle options

• backend: Add different subtitle settings - user-settings.json
• client: There is no global UI settings but if there were subtitle options would be their

If a proper response is not given in the 7 days i'll assume there no longer interest for subtitle support and this Issue will get closed.
