Mostly they’re on so if I miss something, I can glance down and catch it before it disappears, or rewind and figure out what the actor just mumbled.
I had a free trial of apple tv and the only thing I liked was that if you rewinded it it would pop on the subtitles for that period of time and then turn them back off.
There wasn’t enough programming I liked for me to keep the subscription after the free trial but I thought it was a nice touch.
This is exactly why I always have them running. My wife hates it. My proposed solution: give me a smaller screen near the TV that shows the subtitles. That’s my $1 million idea of the year.
That idea has been used for a long time - in opera houses.
Subtitties (I mean titles) are the solution to the “explosion loud; dialogue quiet” problem.
Yeah. I’ve been watching Attack on Titan. I realize the Japanese voice actors sound objectively more badass but there’s so much action I need to be able to see what’s going on so I watch the dubbed version. When things are slow sometimes I multitask.
