How to Add Subtitles to Movies Streamed in Netflix
Posted on October 16, 2011
Today I finally figured out a way to display subtitles to streamed movies in Netflix. You might wonder what the
point of having subtitles in Netflix is. Well, I can think of at least reasons!
You"re watching a movie late at night and want to keep the volume down so as not to disturb your neighbors.#.
The actors are speaking with a strong regional accent that is hard to understand.$.
%omeone in your family &perhaps your parents or your significant other"s parents' do not speak (nglish very
well, so you"d like to display subtitles in their native language.
).
You may be trying to learn a foreign language and are practicing by watching the movie in (nglish and reading
the subtitles in the target language.
*.
You may be hard of hearing or deaf..
These are all relevant reasons for subtitles, but Netflix has not &yet' implemented a fully working solution for
subtitles in its streaming engine. +nly a limited selection of movies in the streaming library have closed
captioning available within Netflix. nd there is no multi-language availability. %o if you want to display subtitles
in %panish for one of the ollywood movies on Netflix, you are out of luck. +r at least so it seems on the surface.
s it turns out, Netflix has built the subtitle capability in its engine, but makes this available through a /hidden0
menu. If you download subtitles in your target language from one of the many specialist web sites, you can
convert the file into the format re1uired by Netflix, and then /soft upload0 the subtitles to the movie while you arewatching.
2elow I provide a step-by-step guide on how to do that!
Step 1: %earch for an %3T file with subtitles for the movie of your choice from any of the many web sites
speciali4ing in subtitles. I personally like to use a web site called 5odNapisi.Please note that downloading a file
with subtitles is perfectly legal, because the subtitles have been generated by a user (i.e., they are not
copyrigthted content). If the web site offers you several choices, download the one that is formatted for a single
file and for $ frames per second &fps'.
Step 2: 5lay the movie in the Netflix player for a little bit and mark the timing &minutes and seconds' for the first
few lines of dialogue. This is very important!You will find that many subtitles files that you download from the
web are a little off in timing compared to the Netflix movies. This is because the subtitles were meant for a movie
that comes from another source &e.g., 676' and Netflix may have added or deleted a few seconds of video from
the beginning of the movie. You will need the information about timing in the next few steps, so make a note of it
somewhere.
Step 3: 6ownload and install a free program called 8ubler9 this is an editor for subtitles. You will need it
because Netflix accepts subtitles in the 6:;5 format but most subtitles on the internet are available in the %3T
format. %o you will need to convert from %3T to 6:;5, using 8ubler. If you are working on a

Step 4: 3un 8ubler and open the %3T file with the subtitles that you have downloaded. :or illustrative purposes
in this post, I will be using The Perfect Hostmovie and %panish subtitles for that movie, which I found on the
5odNapisi web site.
Step 5: 1uick look at the first few lines of the subtitles reveals that they are lagging about #. seconds behind
the movie as it has been formatted for Netflix. &3emember the timings that I asked you to mark for the first few
lines of dialogue in the movie, in %tep $>' You will need to shift the timing a bit. To do that, first select all the lines
of the subtitles in 8ubler.
Step 6: Now click on the Tools menu and select %hift Time.

Step 7: The subtitles in the %3T file seem to be lagging approximately #. seconds behind the Netflix movie. (nter

Step 8:+nce time shifting has completed, export the file into the desired 6:;5 format. =lick on the :ile menu
and select %ave s to do that.

Netflix screen.
Step 14:%elect the second option &%oad ustom *+#P +ile' from the 6iagnostics menu. window will pop up,
which will ask you to locate the 6:;5 file with the subtitles. Co to the location on your hard disk where you saved
the 6:;5 file converted by 8ubler &as discussed in %tep ##'. %elect to open that file.
Step 15: +nce the subtitles file has been /soft uploaded0 to Netflix, you will see that a new button with the text
%ubtitles has appeared next to the buttons for :ull %creen and 7olume in the =ontrol area below the movie screen.
5ress the %ubtitles button to ensure that the newly uploaded subtitles file has been selected.

CongratulationsYou are now ready to play your movie with %panish subtitles. 8ust press the 5lay button anden?oyD
I hope this works e1ually well for you as it does for me. Try it out and let me know what your experiences are.
Update !ar"# 18 2012
s one of the readers of this post has noted in the =omments section, the latest %ilverlight update may disable the
hidden Netflix menu described in this post. I have not yet updated. I tried displaying subtitles today and the
procedure outlined in the post worked. That said, my advice to everyone who has not completed the latest
%ilverlight update would be to postpone doing that, as long as Netflix allows streaming movies without the update.
That would ensure you can still display foreign language subtitles. 5lease let me know in the =omments section if
you have more information on this issue.

the latest %ilverlight update. What this means is basically that we should all postpone updating to the latest %ilverlight as
long as possible. 8udging from how many people hit my post on a daily basis, I can see there is a huge demand for subtitles
in foreign languages on Netflix. Yet Netflix is not doing anything to support that officially, so I think the company is
missing out on adding a nice feature that would make a lot of customers happy.

with subtitles. To the best of my knowledge, there is no difference in the way T7 series and full-featured movies
are streamed. When you say that it does not work with the :riday Night @ights series, can you describe in more
detail what actually happens> re the subs showing at all but out of sync> 6o you see gibberish &instead of
recogni4able text' on the screen> 6o you get the option to turn subtitles on and off> =an you even access the

6ecember $F##, it should work. I am pretty sure if you search for that version, you might find one on the internet. eep in
mind there is no Netflix download per se G the whole streaming takes place in your browser, via the %ilverlight
technology. %o what really matters is what version of %ilverlight you"re using. s far as I know, you can always sign up for
Netflix and then cancel &i.e., no strings attached'. %o I"d suggest trying it out for a month and testing whether the subtitles
would work on your machine or not. Netflix usually runs a free trial, as well G so you"re bearing no risk doing this. ope
this is helpful.

i (rik, I suspect you may have to tell your computer to pro?ect on both screens after connecting the 7C cable to your
7C out port on the laptop. Typically, one of your /functional0 keys on the top of your keyboard is assigned to toggle the
monitor modes. 5ress and hold the :unction &/:n0' key, and at the same time press the /hotkey0 with the picture of the
monitor on it. This varies, but on Toshibas it is often /:.0 =ontinuing to press the combination will toggle between laptop
monitor only, external monitor only and both screens. You may also need to go into /Craphics 5roperties0 to ad?ust the
viewing area. The method for this may vary depending on the type of laptop, but you should be able to right-click on the
desktop and select /Craphics 5roperties.0 This will take you into the screen that sets up the dual monitors. %elect
/(xtended 6esktop0 to have your display stretch across both monitors. The /=lone0 setting shows the same display on
both monitors. :or the purpose of watching movies, I recommend the /=lone0 mode. To play your audio, connect the
audio cord to your laptop"s out port and plug it into your T7"s audio in. You may need to ad?ust your T7"s settings to tell it

I believe there are MFk titles for the us market, and about * titles in countries like mine &argentina' for all
of this movies you have an easy menu to set subtitles to %panish. because of the limited selection of movie
titles we are trying to log as if we were A% customers to get more movie options. but many people from arg,
avoid this since there are no %panish subtitles. why doesn"t Netflix allow the whole world to see all MF
titles> .. i guess it has to do with network and cable operators agreements, no sure.
Emil_M says
September 24, 2012 at 09:01
i :endo, I think the main reason for the limited choice available in your country is primarily agreements
that Netflix has to strike with the big production studios for streaming their content online in international
locations. The local cable companies may be doing everything possible to prevent Netflix from getting a
stronger foothold in their markets, as well. I think over time you"ll see the library of titles expand G as
Netflix settles in the market and starts turning a profit.

I followed all of the instructions carefully. I was finally able to successfully load %panish subtitles for the
movie and (nglish subtitles on a different movie, but it did seem that getting the timing right may be hard
since the Netflix player doesn"t list the exact time the video is paused at anymore &which also causes
problems for archiving screen captures or noting lines of dialogue in the movies'.
s I said in my previous comment, the diagnostic menu shortcut listed in the original post didn"t work for me
but %hift M lt M =lick +n 7ideo did. The other difference I noticed when the subtitles did work was that no
button showed up to confirm that they loaded 9 the subtitles ?ust played. There must be something wrong
with the (nglish subtitles for this particular movie &Intermission'. I ?ust wish I could figure out what the
problem is.

spam. I ?ust went through my comments list and noticed yours and marked them as /not spam.0 If I
understand your 1uestion correctly, you"re asking how to determine if your subtitles are running ahead or lagging
behind the actual movie. 8ust play the movie for a few minutes, and mark the times &using a watch' when you hearthe first few phrases. :or example, if the first phrase comes out at # minute )) seconds after the beginning of the
movie, mark that down. Then open the subtitle file in 8ubler and see what is the %tart time for the first line G this
should be the first column. If, for example, it says # minute and )$ seconds, you know that your subtitle file is
running # second ahead of the actual movie. Then choose to %hift Time in 8ubler and select M# second. fter you

I was wondering how to add subtitles in Netflix, and I finally found a more simple solution ! %A2TIT@( 7I(W(3%. Those are
programs that play the subtitles in a box that you can put over any video. I use str7iewer on mac, but there are many of those
subtitle viewers on 5= too.
I hope this can help peoples getting around Netflix lacks of subtitles supportP
ave a nice dayD

I @ehcen. I don"t know which program you"re using, but in srt7iewer there is buttons to nudge the subtitle forward or
backward by # second. I use that in the beginning of the movie until I get one perfectly synchronised phrase, and after
that I"m + for the rest of the movie. That is if you have the right subtitle version for the movie, because some of
them seems impossible to synchronise.
I hope that helpD

i @ehcen. In my experience, one of the trickiest things about synchroni4ing subtitles arises from the frame rate.
%ometimes the subs you have may be for different fps depending on the region or the original from which they
were ripped. You may have to account for this G I"m mentioning some tips on how to do this in my main post
above. If your subs" fps is different from the fps of the movie you"re watching, you"ll always get misalignment G
even if you offset your subs correctly to sync the first few phrases in the movie. I hope this helps.
