Re: EPUB videos

Hi Siri,

We tried this a year or so ago and found that adding captions to video in epub required hand-editing the HTML of the epub file. However, I'd be thrilled to hear if anyone knows of better solutions that have come along.

Hi,
I have couple of questions regarding videos in EPUB file.

1) In windows:
      Using Sigil I tried to embed mp4 files to an EPUB file.
      I am not able to embed the video.

This approach works on MAC.

Can you please advise how I can embed mp4 files to an EPUB file in windows?

2) How can we add captions and audio description  to the embedded video?


Thank you all for you input!!

Thanks,
Siri
