Research direction
Examine the existing `TextTrackSettings` component in the video.js source code (likely `src/js/tracks/text track settings.js`). Look at how other settings are exposed via getters/setters and identify the default values that need setters. Review any comments in the issue for desired method signatures (e.g., `setLanguage()`, `setCaptionOpacity()`). Propose a consistent API pattern and open a PR with the changes.
