SubtitleInfo

Represents a subtitle track used for media playing.

The URL is required, so the -init method will throw an exception. Please use the parameterized initializers.

This class is immutable.

Different services support specific subtitles formats:

  • DLNA service supports SRT format only. Since there is no official specification for them, subtitles may not work on all DLNA-compatible devices.

  • Netcast service supports SRT format only, through DLNA.

  • Google Cast service supports WebVTT format only and has additional requirements: https://developers.google.com/cast/docs/ios_sender#cors-requirements

  • FireTV service supports WebVTT format only. Subtitles on Fire TV are hidden by default and should be displayed manually by the user.

  • WebOS service supports WebVTT format only. Server providing subtitles should support CORS headers, similarly to Cast service’s requirements.
