Subtitles and audio language in IPTV films and series
Many films and series in an IPTV library carry several audio languages and subtitle tracks, and some carry none. Uzman IPTV Player lets you choose among the tracks in the video, look for subtitles online, or load your own file. Here is how.
Step by step
Open “Audio & subtitles” in the player
While a film or episode plays, open “Audio & subtitles”. On a TV remote it is ▼ (in an episode: ▲).
Choose the audio language
Under “Audio” you see the languages the video carries, such as the original and a dub. Pick one; playback continues in it.
Turn subtitles on
Under “Subtitles” pick a language, or “Off” to hide them.
Nothing suitable? Search online
Choose “Search subtitles online” on a phone, tablet or computer. Results marked “✓ Made for this video” match exactly; others are matched to the video's timing automatically where possible.
Or load your own file
With “Load subtitles from a file…” you can open an .srt or .vtt file from your device.
Fix the timing
If subtitles are early or late, use “Subtitle timing” to move them in steps of 0.5 or 5 seconds.
Tips
- Set it once: in Settings → “Audio & subtitles”, choose a “Preferred audio language” and a “Subtitle language”. Subtitles then stay off when the audio is already in your language.
- Under “Subtitle appearance” you choose text size, colour (white or yellow), background and position.
- Online subtitle search is free a set number of times on each device; a subtitle pack makes it unlimited.
Common questions
Why are there no subtitles to choose from?
The video itself carries none. Search online or load an .srt file. Some videos carry image subtitles, which the player lists as not supported.
Does online subtitle search work on the TV?
Not yet: it works on phones, tablets and computers and is on its way to TVs. Tracks that are inside the video work on TVs today.
Do live channels have subtitles?
Only when the broadcast itself carries them; then they appear under “Subtitles” like any other track.
