New to Plex & cannot get subtitles

Server Version#:
Player Version#:

I have Plex installed on my TV. I am using the NVidia Shield for streaming. Heard a lot about Plex so I decided to give it a try. I don’t know the difference between server and player. I suspect I have player. I only want to stream and have no need for a library. Once I watch something I usually have no interest in watching it again.

I am able to view content but cannot for the life of me figure out how to get subtitles, which I need due to bad hearing.

Can anyone explain, step by step, how I can get subtitles on my Plex Player.

Thanks.

Are you using Plex Video on Demand, which has ads?

If so, those movies, shows, etc do not have subtitles.

Subtitles are coming soon and will be available for many of our titles, however we’re not able to guarantee availability for our entire catalog. We’re limited to what our content distributors provide.
