Abstract:Subtitles can help improve the understanding of media content. People enable subtitles based on individual characteristics (e.g., lan-guage or hearing ability), viewing environment, or media context (e.g., drama, quiz show). However, some people fnd that subtitles can be distracting and that they negatively impact their viewing ex-perience.We explore the challenges and opportunities surrounding interaction with real-time personalisation of subtitled content. To understand how people currently interact with subtitles, we frst conducted an online questionnaire with 102 participants. We used our fndings to elicit requirements for a new approach called Adap-tive Subtitles that allows the viewer to alter which speakers have subtitles displayed in real-time.We evaluated our approach with 19 participants to understand the interaction trade-ofs and challenges within real-time adaptations of subtitled media. Our evaluation fndings suggest that granular controls and structured onboarding allow viewers to make informed trade-ofs when adapting media content, leading to improved viewing experiences.
