Change language/subtle for videos streaming

How can I change audio language and subtle in my streaming video?

 

EDIT: I watch .mkv and .avi videos from Firefox 55.0.3 on Linux.

Those files have two languages (Italian and English) and one subtle (English) included in each video file.

Unfortunately despite the Italian track is the default one and the forced one, the video is streamed with English language audio.

    Hello, Mattia_b89...

     

    You didn't offer any specifics of what you're using, such as; Operating System or what type of device (eg: computer, phone or tablet).

     

    Also, it would be helpful for us to know which streaming video(s) that you're referring to so that we can answer your question more accurately.

     

    Since my crystal ball refuses to work on the weekends (attempt at humor)... I'll start by suggesting that you look at your language preferences.  Be sure that you scroll downward within the article to view the specific instructions for the operating system you're using.

    Im afraid there is no way of doing this. The website simply displays a preview of the file. To be able to change the settings of files as it plays you'll need to download it first.
