Use case or problem
Embedded videos are not accessible. This kind of accessibility is basic… and it’s missing.
Proposed solution
Please, for Obsidian’s hard-of-hearing and second-language users: enable .srt caption files (same name as the video, in the same directory as the video) to play in embedded videos!
Current workaround (optional)
It’s apparently possible to play .srt files via a third-party plugin, but it’s not yet listed as a Community Plugin, and it’s not straightforward.
