**User Stories**
1. As a user with a hearing impairment, I want to be able to watch PiP videos with captions, as it’s my only way to follow along. 
2. As a user, I want to be able to watch PiP videos with subtitles, so I can follow along with videos in unfamiliar languages or with poor sound quality.  
3. As a user, I want to be able to watch PiP videos in situations when sound is distracting, so that I don’t have to interrupt my flow and return to the in-tab video playback with subtitles. 


**Acceptance Criteria**

1. Subtitles implementation can read WebVTT subtitles to support video hosting websites that are using the standard. 
2. Subtitles in a user-chosen language are displayed in PiP if the user turned them on in the source tab (where WebVTT or site-specific adapters have been supported)
3. Users can turn subtitles on or off from the source tab, but not from the PiP window. 
4. Subtitles in non-Latin scripts, if chosen by a user in a source tab, are successfully displayed in PiP. 
5. The subtitles layer in PiP does not overlap with the existing playback or window controls.
