💎 Say Goodbye to Blind Scrubbing: Subtitles as Index, Instant Line Jump

1. Minimalist Interaction: Smart Drag-and-Drop Recognition

ZWPlayer completely revolutionizes the way external resources are loaded. No tedious path selection—simply drag your subtitle files (.srt, .vtt, .bcc, .json, etc.) or chapter marker files directly into the player window for instant loading.

Dual-track parallel: The system supports mounting 2 external subtitle tracks simultaneously, perfectly meeting bilingual learning and comparative viewing needs.
One-click chapters: Drag in a chapter file, and the progress bar instantly displays knowledge-point distribution.

*Note: For optimal performance, the system intelligently extracts the first two subtitle files and the first chapter file dropped.*

2. Global Search: Audio-Visual Sync, Search & Go

Traditional linear viewing is a thing of the past. ZWPlayer’s built-in high-efficiency subtitle search engine makes video content “indexable and searchable.”

Millisecond response: Click the “CC” subtitle button on the player control bar to enter the “Subtitle Search” panel. By default, the system tiles all currently active subtitle lines.
Real-time dynamic filtering: Type keywords in the search box; results filter instantly as you type—no need to press Enter.
Precise anchor jump: Spot the target line, click it, and the player instantly seeks to the exact second and starts playback.
