Add Advanced SubStation Alpha (ASS) subtitles support to videojs using the libjass library.

Check out the demo here

For plugin that supports videojs v5.x install using either:

• bower install videojs-ass

or

• npm install videojs-ass

For videojs v4:

Just specify version to be within:

"videojs-ass": ">=0.3.0 < 0.5.0"

for bower or npm whichever you prefer using.

Initialize the ass plugin with the src field like the following:

videojs('player_id', {
  plugins: {
    ass: {
      src: 'subs/subtitles.ass'
    }
  }
}

Footnotes:

1. This property is required!
2. Has fallback values but you should provide a better label.
3. Value can be negative
4. Generally, you should set these values when using external videojs providers as they might not expose the video dimensions to the player.
