libpgs-js

This library renders the graphical subtitles format PGS (.sup files) in the browser.

Requirements

This library makes use of Web Worker API and OffscreenCanvas for faster and optimized rendering if available. Backwards compatibility was tested as far back as Chrome 68 and WebOS 1.2.

Usage

Install the package via npm:

npm i --save libpgs

Create with default canvas

The PGS renderer will create a default canvas element next to the video element:

const videoElement = document.getElementById('video-element');
const pgsRenderer = new libpgs.PgsRenderer({
  // Make sure your bundler keeps this file accessible from the web!
  workerUrl: './node_modules/libpgs/dist/libpgs.worker.js', 
  video: videoElement,
  subUrl: './subtitle.sup'
});

The created default canvas element is using a style definition like this:

position: absolute;
left: 0;
top: 0;
right: 0;
bottom: 0;
width: '100%';
height: '100%';
pointer-events: 'none';
object-fit: 'contain';

This only works if the video element is stretched in its parent and if the parent is using the css position property.

<div style="position: relative">
    <video id="video-element" src="./video.mp4"></video>
</div>

Create with custom canvas

It is also possible to provide a custom canvas element and position it manually:

const videoElement = document.getElementById('video-element');
const canvasElement = document.getElementById('canvas-element');
const pgsRenderer = new libpgs.PgsRenderer({
  // Make sure your bundler keeps this file accessible from the web!
  workerUrl: './node_modules/libpgs/dist/libpgs.worker.js',
  video: videoElement,
  canvas: canvasElement,
  subUrl: './subtitle.sup'
});

Time offset

You can also adjust time offset between video and subtitle:

// Rendering the subtitle 3 seconds in advance of the video
pgsRenderer.timeOffset = 3.0;

Destroy

Make sure to dispose the renderer when leaving:

// Releases video events and removes the default canvas element
pgsRenderer.dispose();
