How to remove or change the language in sub-title

    Hi gregoirc, if you open the Dropbox Capture desktop app and then click the “⁝” (vertical ellipsis) in the top-right, then click Preferences, can you toggle Generate closed captions to off, and then on again?

    Hi gregoirc, welcome to our Community! 

     

    Would you mind clarifying if you're referring to Dropbox Capture, Dropbox Replay or perhaps about previewing a file in your Dropbox account? 

     

    What file type are you referring to? 

     

    Keep me posted!

    Just to confirm, gregoirc, are you referring to the subtitles of the video in this link? So a Dropbox Capture video?

     

    And did someone sent you this video or did you create it on your end?

    Yes I created it and I am referring to the subtitle of this video.

    Thank you for your help

    Hey gregoirc, happy Monday! 

     

    What type of OS do you use on your end? 

     

    Could you please clarify if the subtitles are embedded to the files or if they're a separate, .txt or .srt file for example? Does this happen for all of your video files?
