Subtitles On Itv Hub

[Rosie29]

I can't seem to find out how to get subtitles on ITV hub.
The programme does have subtitles ( Finding Alice). I've Googled and it says there is an S in the top right hand corner when the programme starts. But there isn't. Ive tried the subtitle button on my handset but that doesn't work with ITV hub.
Any thoughts please.

Try using a different browser if going in via a browser.

No Subtitles on ITV Hub or BBC I Player.

I'm watching on smart TV so accessing hub via tv.

[Rosie29]

But Google suggests subtitles are available. So I am surprised.

[Rosie29]

Thanks anyway both.

iplayer is fine, Unsureme, I always switch on the subtitles. (On my desktop.)

I find with ITV hub that I can only select subtitles when the programme has started, not when any of the adverts are playing. I only access it on my laptop but I have to wait until the programme itself starts, move the cursor so the options (play etc...) appear at the bottom of my screen, then click on the subtitles.

I do remember there was one of the online catch ups that I used that you had to be really quick at the beginning of the programme to get the options for subtitles, or it disappeared. I can't remember which one it was though.

[Unsureme]

Must have just changed then,jno,tried many times.

To access ITV Hub subtitles on a smart TV, you need to be using a Samsung TV that's using the Tizen operating system (which started being introduced in their models in 2017) or a Tv with Freeview Play (also from 2017 onwards).

Other smart TVs with the ITV Hub app on them aren't compatible with subtitles from that service:

I only try on TV,BTW.

I have hearing issues and have never had an issue having subtitles on iPlayer. It seems to be set now that they come up automatically for me as I always use them.

I watched a few episodes on iPlayer at the weekend (The Serpent) and had subtitles on. I don't just mean for the bits in other languages, subtitles all the way through.

just tried it again, Unsureme, no problems. Click the little box at bottom right that has a square with a couple of lines in it.

Still my PC, though, I've no idea how it would be on a TV or phone.

[Rosie29]

Thanks Eve but all Ive got on the bottom of the screen is the "time line " and Parental Controls. None of the options at the top of the screen including Settings help.

[Unsureme]

Thanks jno,will give it a try.

[Rosie29]

And thanks B as well.

[Unsureme]

I stand corrected,jno.

I can’t get subtitles when I access through my Sky box. I can’t get any subtitles on any Catch Up /On Demand etc. Apparently Sky don’t provide them with these services. No problem with ordinary TV programs or things I record from the TV to my Sky box. No problem if I access things like BBC i player on my tablet or laptop. However, I don’t have a smart TV. How are you trying to access ITV hub?

Like Eve, I get subtitles. This is on my laptop.

Access Settings on LG tv then select Network. Select Accessibility. Scroll down to Subtitles and switch on. Should give subtitles on ITV Hub
