Please help, I am looking for a way to add the html overlay text ingredient list for recipes video to upload to youtube. When I insert the following html from a file to the html overlay filter, it shows the html code instead of the result.

  • 19oz Tofu (extra firm or firm)
  • 14oz canned tomato
  • 6oz tomato paste
  • 4oz shredded cheddar or mozzarella cheese

I am not sure what happen, when I copied the html code to my question, it is showing the outcome, but when copied the same code file to the video html overlay filter, the result is html code!!!.

Are you sure the file with the code in it has an ‘.html’ extension and not ‘.txt’?

To paste code in this forum, you have to use the preformatted text tool

Example:

<html><head></head><body>
<svg width="8cm" height="8cm" viewBox="0 0 512 512"
     xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" version="1.1">
  <title>Example triangle01- simple example of a 'path'</title>
  <desc>A path that draws a triangle</desc>
  <path d="M 100 100 L 500 100 L 300 500 z"
        fill="orange" stroke="red" stroke-width="22" />
  <path d="M 500 500 L 100 500 L 300 100 z"
        fill="none" stroke="blue" stroke-width="33" />
</svg><script src="draw-svg.js"></script></body></html>

As for your problem, perhaps the code was inserted in the wrong area? Use the code button at the top or the source tab at the bottom:

Elusien and qubodup,
Thanks for the reply, the file extension is ‘.html’ but I created using Mac TextEditor which even if I save the file with ‘.html’ extension, it did not save it in html format. That was the problem. The code was inserted to a correct place.
Finally I wanted to increase the font size, I did that and tested it to a browser. It worked by increasing the font size. But when I inserted the code to the overlay, it did not increase the font size.
Once again thanks for the reply. I fixed the problem.
Thanks for the answers both of you
