Re: deficiency in javascript api for creating text track cues

The value of position on a TextTrackCue is always interpreted as a
percentage.
So, when you say cue1.position=15; that means that you're setting position
to 15% of video width.
See:
http://www.w3.org/TR/html5/single-page.html#text-track-cue-text-position

HTH.

Silvia.
