Subtitle Settings

Customizing subtitle appearance helps you maintain a professional and consistent viewing experience across your streaming platform.

Different users watch content on different devices — TVs, laptops, tablets, and mobile phones. Proper subtitle styling ensures:

📱 Better readability on all screen sizes
🎨 Visual consistency with your brand design
👀 Improved viewer comfort during long watch sessions
♿ Enhanced accessibility for users with visibility challenges
🎬 A premium OTT-like experience

By adjusting subtitle font size, font style, and text edge effects, you can significantly improve clarity and user experience.
