Hello. Thank you for your plugin development. Love this plugin. It seems to work fine with shortcodes provided on WP plugin page. The display interface is attractive, and captions display in the lower left corner of the overlay. Personal experience: it worked on my Win 10 Chrome desktop browser, and Android tablet, just fine.
