  2. Select languages from the left hand menu
  3. Make the changes you want to make and select save. Tick the automatically select audio and subtitle tracks.

  2. From the subtitles menu select the subtitle feed from those available.

Conclusion

I have tested these settings on various media, including over the air digital broadcast (Freeview here in the UK) and content I had ripped from media I own.
