When you see the file name on the screen Use the subtitle icon on the lower left of the screen to open the subtitle box Then you can select the subtitles you want to see There is no default related to the tv settings

It depends on what is embedded in the video file Some have very basic subtitles which are fine others have detail about font/colour etc I use SubtitleEdit to strip and modify the subs The first time you will need to enter all the options you need but they are saved ready for the next time

The standard programme viewer is just as good as Kodi If you really want Kodi you can install it on a seperate box plugged in an hdmi socket

Sound like a problem with SKY Now app on LG You have to chase Sky😏

Where are the subtitles coming from? TV channels or downloaded video on disk? The latter are quite easy to adjust Start the video in the Media Player Click then Scroll down with the centre button on your remote You will see a SUB button come up on the screen Click on it, and in the menu on the right adjust the Size, at the bottom of the list

Why did the latest WebOS update 03.51,15 change my home screen settings? That is very RUDE It is MY home screen, not yours☹️

I have many files on my external disk but I do not experience any substantial delay It may be that you are using the disk for the first time? After that you will find a file added to you external device that will be used on subsequent connections and the load time will be negligible

I use the standard Media Player on my LG Nanocell TV It plays all the modern media type, MKV and MP4 perfectly smoothly If a file will not play I run it through Format Factory on my PC to convert to MKV with 265 compression No visible loss of quality but file size reductions are beneficial as I have a large archive As for the frame drops and lagging, I suggest you look at the cable you are using to connect the USB and try a different USB. The cheap ones are not always good quality I run my videos from a USB hdd

Are you sure the channel you are watching provides subtitles? IPTV cannot just magic them up for you I have IPTV smarters installed on my LG TV I do get subtitles on series, but only arabic Maybe a function of my location Nothing on live channels

Thanks

Where did you get that idea? A link would be useful

I may be old fashioned but I turn off my TV at the power socket at night

I don't see subtitles on any series with IPTV smarters With the films there are subtitles in Arabic on my subscription

Occasionally they have issues and loose account details Give them a call They are available on WhatApp +91 70660 78966 I have found them to be helpful and responsive

1 Hot Player is not available on LG 2. It is not supported by IPTV Smarters Please keep with the Thread

Why not use the builtin Media Player on the LG TV? It is very good and reliable

If you are plugging a USB directly into to TV. the internal Media Player ignores all colour information However on my Nano90 TV subtitles are displayed correctly and readably Otherwise you may need to buy an external Android box to play the videos then the full formatting options will be available

Have you checked your aerial and cable?

Glad you found the solution For others, note that I had a similar problem very recently with an older TV, 2 years old Drop out of connection to hard disk I tracked it down to a faulty cable connecting the drive to the TV A new cable for $3 and all is fine again

I have a different model of TV but no problem with external disks, even with multiple folder levels. Have you checked for an update of the Player app?

You will probably need an external android box to load the app Then feed the signal to your LG TV via HDMI

1. LG uses LGOS. Not Android, so why should that site help? 2. It is blatant advertising and needs a credit card to get any information

Here is a work around Do you have access to a PC? Install Subtitle Edit, a free utitity Then open the file with Subtitle Edit This will allow you to select the subs you want and save as a separate .srt file Then you should be OK on the TV Just make sure that External Subs is enables PS Subtitle Edit has many features for replacing text in the subs file so that it appears cleanly on your TV

Using the standard Movie Player Select the title on the screen giving details 1920 x 1080 etc Then use the scroll button to roll down and show a new line below If your movie has a correctly named subtitle file, you will see a SUB button Click on it and a new window will open in the top right Firstly a button to turn subs on and off Selections about the language and the synchronisaton Hope that helps

Nothing like that showing on my LG TV screen
