Burned in Subtitles
Description:
“Burned In Subtitles” refers to any subtitle text that is rendered into picture of the primary video asset.
Impact:
Burned in subtitles impact the Content Quality of the Asset. Netflix localizes subtitles for various languages to provide a seamless viewing experience for our members around the world.
