Hello,
Is it possible to embed video from disk with subtitle option (e.g. srt-file) within sitely 5/6 native (not YouTube/vimeo/html5-coding)?

Hello,

From my understanding of the Sitely video element, it does not provide a native UI for subtitles/captions (e.g. .SRT files) or track management.
Your options
Option 1 — Use Sitely’s HTML embed (recommended workaround)
Even though you said “no HTML coding,” this is realistically the only way to get SRT subtitles working properly inside Sitely. If you want a piece of embed code to achieve this, let me know and I will add it to this thread.
Option 2 — Burn subtitles into the video
You can permanently embed subtitles using tools like:
• HandBrake
• ffmpeg
Pros:
• Works with Sitely’s native video block
• No coding required
Cons:
• Subtitles can’t be turned on/off
• No multi-language support
Option 3 — Use a third-party player
Some external players support subtitles cleanly:
• Plyr
• Video.js
But again:
These still require HTML embed in Sitely.
