Subtitles on Fire TV

I have been trying to set up subtitles on my FireTV but it doesn't seem to work. I go to Settings-->Accessibility-->Subtitles and Captioning-->Outline Text, but it doesn't seem to have any actual effect, as no subtitles are shown when I watch a show. Any thoughts?

That setting would only determine the style.

To select a specific subtitle by language, do this:

Turn on subtitles and closed captioning (if available) - Apple TV App User Guide - Apple Support

  • During playback, press the down button on the smart TV or streaming device remote to show the Subtitles pane, then select an option.
