I would really appreciate some help here.

How can I get subtitles working on Netflix?

About six months ago, I had no trouble at all getting subtitles to show up on Netflix by using this method:



But now, it just isn't working for me anymore.

When I look at the subtitle menu, it clearly shows that I have selected the American English option, yet the subtitles simply refuse to appear on the screen.

What has changed recently?

Where am I going wrong?

Thank you.

Perhaps others are either observing this as perfectly normal or they simply aren't experiencing these particular issues, which might be why nobody is coming forward.

I've been using this Chrome extension lately: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/d...bomlbidfodipjg

It actually works with pretty much any video content you throw at it, not just Netflix! Honestly, I think it’s way more user-friendly than that other one you were asking about.

Thanks.

Maybe try using Cody? It handles all that stuff really smoothly.

I'm not sure if you've ever messed around with Cody before, but it's a media player and hub that expands its main features through various addons. It works on pretty much any platform.

Basically... you just install a third-party Netflix addon on Cody, log in, and once you start a movie or show, you can pull subtitles from all the major subtitle sites through the standard Cody menus. That way, you aren't stuck relying on whatever Netflix provides.
I guess you can also mess with settings you wouldn't normally have on the official Netflix app, like zooming the image or changing the subtitle position and size.

It works seamlessly with just about any video content you throw at it, not just Netflix, and I find it much more intuitive to navigate than the one you were asking about.

It is straightforward, highly effective, and most importantly, it actually does what it claims to do.

I am truly grateful for the assistance provided here and would certainly recommend this solution to anyone else facing similar issues.
