Subtitles not working

[Shazza3]

Hi just recently got a QE43Q60BAUXXU tv. Subtitles are turned on in the settings but aren’t showing on any programmes. I’ve checked for updates but it says it’s up to date. Any ideas please. Thanks

Try enabling them inside of the app settings

Thanks will give that a try

@Shazza3: If you're watching TV via an aerial connection, then you can enable subtitles via the steps below. 

Home > Menu > Settings > All Settings > General & Privacy > Accessibility > Subtitle Settings > Subtitle > On. 

For connected external devices, or when viewing programmes via a streaming app, please check the settings of the device or application, as the subtitles will need to be set up independently.

I embedded lyrics in *srt format but the TV states that the subtitle fuction is unavailable. The model is UA40J5200AK
