no subtitle or closed caption. I would like you to add feature that all html5
video support closed caption subtitle. We can add file of subtitle to website
with htnml5 video. I hope you add this feature soon or someday. If you decided
to process this idea, and success. please contract me - orangeearths@yahoo.com


Thank you for time.

The <track> element satisfies this need. It just needs implementations in browsers.
