Subtitle

ByteArk Player SDK for Android supports subtitles embedded in the HLS/DASH manifest, with customizable appearance, and a viewer-facing picker through the player UI.

val playerBuilder = ByteArkPlayerBuilder.Builder()
  .withContext(this)
  .withSubtitleSize(SubtitleSize.MEDIUM)
  .withSubtitleBackgroundEnabled(true)
  .withSubtitlePaddingBottomPercentage(10)
  .build()

Builder method	Type	Description
withSubtitleSize(size: SubtitleSize)	enum	Font size (SMALL, MEDIUM, LARGE)
withSubtitleBackgroundEnabled(enabled: Boolean)	Boolean	Show subtitle background
withSubtitlePaddingBottomPercentage(percentage: Int)	Int	Bottom padding (%)

Select subtitle via API

val subtitles: List<ByteArkSubtitle> = mPlayerFragment.getSubtitles()
val current: ByteArkSubtitle? = mPlayerFragment.getCurrentSubtitle()
mPlayerFragment.setSubtitle(subtitles[0])

Receive subtitle cue events

override fun onCues(cues: List<Cue>) {
  // Use for custom subtitle rendering if needed
}
