RE: Full-screen captioning

IMO this kind of thing if best done by the author of the web page; it is a relatively trivial javascript/css coding exercise to do this.

Doing this kind of thing natively in the web platform will be hard, and we'll be unable to solve everybody's scenario as well as the actual page author can, with the tools we have today.

Thanks!

Note that option three needn't reduce the displayed area relative to option two if the video's aspect is sufficiently wider than the display's.

I like it when captions are outside the frame too, but this does conflict with the absolute positioning options. Captions can display there by default, I guess, but any position commands have to be within the video frame.
