Its enormously irritating that there is insufficient information at a film state. Certainly it's about dubbed films. This is hateful. We recently hired Hot Fuzz and again non enough information that it was dubbed in French!
So Apple, sufficient information about dubbed and also about language of the provided subtitels of a film plz certainly in Belgium.
Thanks

For info these are user-to-user forums, you're not talking to iTunes Support nor Apple.
The language, and any alternate audio tracks and/or subtitles, should be listed on its description page in the store e.g. for Hot Fuzz in the Belgium store :
I know I'm not talking to Apple :-)
I do not see any mention of subtitles on your screenshot.
In Belgium the are always subtitels, so its not clear if there are available or not, and if which are available.
If subtitles are not listed the film's description page then that implies that they are not available on that film e.g. a film that does have subtitles listed on its description page is Selma :
Then again, they better keep a movie offline that does not meet the minimum language requirements of a country meets.
The same info in the UK store…
I wonder if the distributors are the reason for the different metadata & subtitles across different stores (the Studio is different)?
I'm not entirely sure what 'they better keep a movie offline that does not meet the minimum language requirements of a country meets' means.
It's the distributor/rights-holder in a particular country that decide what language(s) and subtitle options are available on their films - if you want different languages then contact the rights-holder/film studio, Apple can only sell in a particular country what they've been granted a license to sell
Curious that a Belgian internet and digital TV providers (Telenet.be and Proximus.be), the same movies just as even offering.
Why Apple would not be able to this.
Who is the studio supplying those files to Telenet & Proximus?
If the content owner supplies different files to different services then it isn't the fault of Apple. They are 'middlemen' in this system.
The distributors have many agreements across the world meaning that there is not just one source of these movies.
You should really submit this as issue feedback for the iTunes store.
Maybe Apple could list audio & subtitle tracks separately in the store or on the Apple TV, to be honest I'm not sure how it could be made clearer unless they added a specific item for 'No additional subtitles or audio tracks available'.
Question is submitted to http://apple.com/feedback/
You are unlikely to get a reply from the feedback link, unless they want more info.
King_Penguin is right, if you want an actual response you will need to use the store support link…
