I am a bit lost here.
I just watched A Quiet Place on Amazon and it had subtitles…
Subtitles also describe sounds, they’re not just about speech.
You’re thinking of closed captioning. Subtitles is just dialogue.
That is called described audio.
Well, ackshually…
That is Subtitles for the Deaf and Hearing-impaired (SDH). It is not the standard for subtitles in the US and Canada.
