There are many reasons why Amazon Prime subtitles not working issue occurs on Samsung/LG/Roku smart TV, Chrome, Firestick, Xbox One and other streaming devices. Possible Reasons Why Amazon Prime Subitle Doesn't Work Subtitles/close captions are in the wrong language Subtitles/close captions are missing or not showing up Just hilariously lazy.If Amazon Prime Video subtitles are not working while streaming, click a scenario from the list below to learn more quick fixes: The subtitles are certainly nothing you would see on a legitimate DVD release subtitle track.Īmazon's subtitles often use in place of actually describing the sound/music/voices on screen. I was curious if anyone else had noticed this kind of thing. It's like they ripped the video straight from VHS with freeware.Īnyway, this stuff feels very unprofessional. Not only was it 4:3 and low resolution, bu there was a frame I managed to pause the film at, which was a black screen with a gear icon that said something like 'codec error'. I was watching the movie 'Tim' with Mel Gibson. While I'm talking about it, has anyone else noticed how poor the quality can be on some Amazon video titles? Are the subtitle tracks outsourced to foreigners who watch the film and type out the track as they watch? Not nearly the worst but an example of the common mistakes in these subtitle tracks.Īre these thrown together by voice recognition software? But if that were true, we shouldn't expect common human typos. The line is - "See, vanity doesn't pay" but the subtitle is "See, that even doesn't pay". There have already been a number of errors and typos, but I had to pause it to get this down for you as a fair example of what I'm talking about. Right now I'm watching 'Horns' on Netflix. It's as though a foreign, non native-English-speaker is typing them up by ear. It reminds me of watching DVD rips sold by market vendors when I was vacationing in Thailand.
I've been watching a lot of movies this summer, on Netflix and Amazon Prime Video and have been watching with the subtitles turned on due to the noisy air conditioner that'll run periodically, and what I've noticed is that the large majority of these subtitles/closed captioning are just horribly made and completely off track from the words on screen, even riddled with occasional typos.
