    Right? Like, you can also use the phone app to add the subtitles and just refresh the android TV app. Or use the web browser.

    This is VASTLY overestimating how much the average user is capable of or wants to do for this functionality.

    Essentially the only solution is “menu with remote, subtitles on/off”.

      But I’m saying that adding subtitles is the Administrator’s job anyways. If using the app on a phone to download and add subtitles is too complicated for the average user to do, why would the ability to do so on the AndroidTV version of the app be any different?

      Users don’t have to search for subtitles to download when they use DVD’s or Blu-Rays, or when they are watching any commercial streaming service.
