Can I put subtitles while playing a movie on TV via USB?
I recently got a LG Smart TV, 3D(if anyone would be kind enough to tell me how to I put 3d subtitles, if not just answer to this one), Full HD and I want to watch a movie in this weekend along with my classmates. I want to know if I can somehow play it with subtitles, since not many of my classmates can watch an english dubbed movie and understand everything. I'm not sure about the model but it's a new 2013 model, 80cm, 3usb ports, 3HDMI etc... Please detail this in step by step if possible as I suck at everything about technology. Thank you.
Why does my LG TV not play all the movies from USB?
The answer by Konstantinos is absolutely correct, but to help you, usually most TVs support .avi and .mp4 type files so prefer to download those for better compatibility, there are some videos titled as PS3 compatible which means they’re mp4 and the codec used makes it playable almost anywhere, most newer TVs from 2016 and later have support for x264. Avoid HEVC, x265 since they are newer and not supported by most cheaper TVs under 1200 USD.
