Hello.

How to change audio language on a movie from USB stick? For one movie it started to play audio track in languague i don't speak and it's very frustrating.

Same with subtitles. I know you can remove audio track in your PC but there must be a way to select audio track without removing others

TV model - Samsung UE43RU7172

I see the option to change the language only if the video is playing. If I pause it the language option disappears. This thing is crazy, but at least now I know how to change the language

Idea is good, however it really depends on the context, where you try to use this option:

  • for example suggested option (if I got it right) is not available for streaming services - neither for Internet services (like YouTube or Netflix) nor for local ones (like DLNA media server streams). What I mean:

Note:

  • I don't even understand, how Samsung perceives the purpose of "Broadcasting" and when this menu options should be even used. But likely they thought about https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DVB

I've bought a Samsung OLED S90D a few weeks ago, and I've just faced this simple but super annoying problem as well... You buy a high-end product, and you expect that all that things that your 6 years old TV knew, this new one also capable of doing. 

Customer expirience and cutomer service should be revised at Samsung...

Same boat here also, I got the S95D last week and the USB setup is atrocious for watching movies. For me I can’t switch off the ***** movie narrator, you literally have next to no options to adjust. 
whoever the think tank team were that ok’ed this poor design need ejected out the nearest window.

Just logging in to let you all know that the issue is still present in S95D in November 2024.

C'mon Samsung!

Couldn't you just port Kodi?

I ended up buying an Nvidia Shield pro just so I could watch my movies properly via USB on my S95D. To be honest best £200 I’ve spent in ages now I’ve side loaded it. 
doesn’t take away the fact the programming for playing media on the tv one of the laziest I’ve came across.

Don’t pause the movie. You can only change the language of the file if it’s playing. Just go to the gear icon and audio language should be an option.

One solution is simply to plug your USB drive into a Blu-ray player or other device that's connected to your TV. There the audio options are usually available.
But come on Samsung, sort this nonsense out. It's insulting to your customers not to fix this.
