Can this move subtitles up and down? Like moving subtitles up from the black bar when using a 21:9 TV?

I bought this and returned it because even though it says it will do subtitles, you cannot get online with it for Netflix etc, unless you buy a special adaptor that costs as much as the player.

I was able to by pushing the "source" button. You should be able to especially if you have a newer model tv. :)

I am sorry that you are having such problems with subtitles. There is a beta firmware in the works at Western Digital and it is out for prerelease. Some really good updates are covered in this, including additional subtitle languages and decoding support. Maybe installing the most recent version, 1.02.07 (updated 04/22/2009) would help if you haven't already? http://www.wdc.com/wdtvprerelease/The only thing that I can think of if that doesn't work is download the subtitle separately from: http://www.opensubtitles.org/Hope this helps!

I did play with the functions, I don't have a 4K TV/Monitor, yes it can be upconverted to 4K.

Thanks, and for those who are wondering I did finally find the answer. It works on 4:3 TVs, but it does scrunch the menu. But if your TV can be changed to 16:9 it will look normal. Still a scrunched screen wasn't enough to put me off. I ordered mine from Apple today. Thanks for everyone's help.

I was extremely worried about this, but it really ended up being a non-issue. At a completely ridiculous distance from the TV (6 inches away -- think nose to the screen), you can make out the subpixel layout. At a distance of 3-5 feet, you can make out some additional jagginess on diagonal lines in some very specific circumstances (white text on a back background). At greater than five feet, the effect disappears entirely.

You're using an 'extended desktop'. Drag what you'd like to view upwards (the default setting) to your tv.

Just a note to anyone using their TV as a second monitor, if your REGULAR monitor is an LCD also and you use Windows you can't have a second ClearType setting for the other monitor. Watching movies etc is fine, but if you use a different style LCD TV the text may appear blurry. It's not a bad connection, just a windows thing :P I wasted a LOT of money connecting my Panasonic TV with all types of different cables before realizing this. Games, images, movies etc don't suffer, just text.

yes,I tried .sub ,but no go.Also I converted it to .srt but was getting out of sync ,so I gave up after trying get it to work.Too bad some realeses have subtitles with .sub. somehow only reads .srt only even after new firmware.No idea why. And yes they both match (movie and sub's)

You have an older version of Amazon that doesn't allow you to select subtitles. IMO this is an awful streamer and if you're able to do so return it for a RUKU player.

unfortunately i do not have a definitive answer, what i could suggest is you tinker with your closed caption/language settings on your tv set to see if this will assist you.

The sorting of files/folders was also discussed with customer service at KDLinks. I pointed this out to them and they claim that they will address it in a future firmware upgrade. I also pointed out that each time a new dvd .iso file is played, the Subtitle function seems to be "On" by default and it was suggested that they default subtitling to "Off". Hope this helps.

Yes, there is an option to choose English subtitles and most of the important dialog and instructions to play will be displayed. However there are scene changes and probably something else that I can't think of at the moment that are spoken only and you would not see on the screen with dialog. I don't think this would diminish your game play though.Hope that helps.

Not sure with this as I returned it and the 4k tv. But anytime I download a mkv formatted video file it will always start playing with subtitles. I press the tools button on the remote and go down to subtitles and turn it off and they go away. Not sure if you have already tried this but that is what I have done!!

What do you mean by upconvert? Do you mean DVDs and such? No TV will do that. You have to have a DVD player with upconvert capabilities or an HD/BlueRay player. It also isn't going to upconvert your signal. In fact your signal may look worse if you don't have HDTV--especially if the set is large. Keep in mind that at the TV store, these TVs are all playing HD cable or satellite or HD-DVD or Blue-Ray DVDs. It's helpful in that you can compare apples to apples, but if you have lessor signal or equipment at home it won't look as good.
