I have a hard time paying attention to media - probably something to do with ADHD - I find the subtitles make me focus more on the content of the movie/show as it's a visual aid.
I can see how having subtitles on can be annoying as they can block important parts of the content, or just be generally distracting (like the article mentions, [DUCKS QUACK])
I've heard there can also be challenges with mastering audio for certain studios - mastering audio so that dialogue can be heard through tinny phone speakers while not replicating well on a TV or expensive sound system.
- Dhaliaz 3y agoWhen subtitles block something that I want to see, if it’s tv I’ll just turn it up/down and they’ll disappear temporarily and mobile devices I’ll turn off until I can’t understand again. I noticed that U also miss descriptions of scenes without subtitles.
