Crave subtitles not working

Jump to solution

When streaming Crave I cannot get the subtitles to work properly. They are turned on and English is selected and works properly at first but if I start a new episode or play something new the subtitles revert to french language. As I require subtitles to view content this is a real pain. I have loaded and reloaded Crave a few times but the problem persists. I went on the Crave site and they send me back to Roku this is very frustrating. Has anyone encountered this? If so have you found a solution.

Same happens to me, I have English selected and when I start a new movie or episode, it reverts to French. Beside that, and worst even is that I also watch content in French with French subtitles, but the subtitles for French content turn off in the middle of the show, even though CC is turned on and French is selected on Crave. I have to rewind a bit to get it on again. This happens every 5 min within any show I'm watching.
