Adding subtitles to the dash.js player
FOSDEM 2016

In this presentation, Solène Buet will detail how W3C TTML subtitles can be used with MPEG DASH streaming, and how it was tested with the EBU-TT-D standard (TTML-based).

Solène implemented EBU-TT-D subtitling with the dash.js reference player.

Solène will explain what TTML-based subtitles are, and how they can be retrieved from a MPEG DASH stream for rendering in the player.

The presentation will cover the process followed by a TTML-based subtitle: from its recovering, to its parsing and its displaying.

You will get an insight in the very hot topic of subtitling through streaming technologies.
