Adding captions to video file in edge animate

Question

Any ideas if this is possible? Thanks to heathrowe I have been able to add video to my project but I also need to add text to accompany it (think captions or subtitles). I currently have text appearing and reappearing but it is independent to the video timeline, so if a viewer skips the video the captions do not reappear. Any thoughts or workarounds would be massively helpful as i am very new to edge but eager to do some great motion design

Hi Jakey,
Have you cracked this?
I think I'm pretty close using a plugin called bubbles.js
I've got the plugin working here.
However when I attempt to install the plugin within edge by placing the following code on the stage compositionReady action it's not working. The function seems to be called, however according to the web inspector the english.srt subtitle file isn't being downloaded, any ideas?
Code:
var vid = $("<video width='640' height='360' id='video-srt' controls=''>" +
   "<source src='test.mp4' type='video/mp4' />" +
   "<source src='http://www.w3schools.com/html5/movie.ogg' type='video/ogg' />" +
   "This browser is not compatible with HTML 5" +
"</video>");
$.getScript("js/bubbles.js", function() {
                    subtitles_test = new Bubbles.video('video-srt');
                    subtitles_test.subtitles( false,
                                        'English' :          {
                                                  language          :          'English',
                                                  file                    :          'subs/english.srt'
sym.$("vcontainer").append(vid);
