How to Create Subtitles

For captions to work properly in your video, the file must be in .VTT (WebVTT) format.

A .vtt file is a text file that contains:

How to upload captions to your video

After uploading the caption file, you can edit the settings using these options (such as display, caption button, font size, alignment, and colors).

These options are located in the menu on the left side of the panel.

Important: You don't need to modify the video code on your page when making edits in the VTurb panel. Just reload your page and, if necessary, clear the cache to see the video with the new edits!
