Description
Would love a toggle in the video player to display VTT & support VTT subtitles in video podcasts, currently you only support it in shownotes
Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by locating the Android video player entry point and the existing VTT handling used for shownotes. Trace how video podcasts are rendered, then add a subtitle toggle whose done state is that VTT subtitles can be displayed during playback; verify the behavior with the relevant player tests if present.
