A WebVTT (Web Video Text Tracks or .vtt) file contains a series of text cues with start and end times in the video. The text in these cues appears only when the video reaches the specified times.

JWP's players use .vtt files to associate side-loaded captions and add chapters with videos.

## Create a .VTT file



  • A .vtt file should always be saved in UTF8 encoding to prevent character issues.

  • The body of the WebVTT file must contain the string WEBVTT in the header in order to be parsed correctly. Learn more about <a href="https://www.w3.org/TR/webvtt1/#file-structure" target="_blank">formatting a .vtt file</a>.
