动态更改字幕视频 - HTML5

Question

I am trying to change the subtitle tracks dynamically on button click using the following lines of code.But it is not changing the subtitles.why?

 $('#turnoff').click(function(){ $('.player-content-video track').attr('default',false); }); $('#english').click(function(){ $('.player-content-video track').attr('default',false); $('.player-content-video track').eq(0).attr('default',false); }); $('#chinese').click(function(){ $('.player-content-video track').eq(1).attr('default',false); }); 

 <script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script> <video class="player-content-video"> <track src="sample_video-en.vtt" srclang="en" kind="subtitles" default="true"> <track src="sample_video-ch.vtt" default="false" srclang="ch" kind="subtitles"> <source src="http://www.w3schools.com/html/mov_bbb.mp4" type="video/mp4"> </video> <br/> <button id="turnoff" >NO SUBTITLE</button> <button id="english" >ENGLISH</button> <button id="chinese" >CHINESE</button> 

NOTE: The track src in this example is only for code demonstration.

Answer 1

If you need to change the default attribute on your track tag you could use the following script:

Working example, please inspect the DOM to see the result (as video and track src are not present):

You can use jQuery :eq() Selector in the following way. More info can be found here.

$('.player-content-video track:eq(0)')

By the way using :eq() make your code dependent of your <track> position in the DOM and require transverse all DOM when User click on a button, which is not really good approach in term maintainability and perfomance.

You could instead, reference your <track> by id and cache your DOM selection when using jQuery.
