Hard-subbed and soft-subbed

How to watch movies with subtitle? First, you should know what is the different between hard-subbed and soft-subbed. Most of the movies from the internet didn't embedded with the subtitle. This is what we called "soft-sub" so that the "hard-subbed" should be the movies with embedded subtitle.

The soft-subbed needs another subtitle file, in order for the subtitle to appear when watching the movie. The most common format for subtitle is .srt but sometimes you can find .sub format. As for me, I prefer the .srt one.

For the hard-subbed, because the subtitle is already embedded in the movie file, you don't need another subtitle file. The disadvantages of hard-subbed is you cannot turn the subtitle off. Why do you need to turn it off? Sometimes, you'll find some movies with foreign subtitle language, and you can't understand. So it's better if you watch the movies without the subtitle. For soft-subbed, you can find the right subtitle (the language that you understand). And if you still can't find it, just delete the subtitle file (.srt format) and watch it without the subtitle.

Why do people need the subtitle? Because they can't understand the spoken language of the movies. I found its quite often for people to download English subtitles for English movies. This is because they can understand the language better when they read it rather than just hear it. That's why they need the subtitle.

I'll tell you how to watch movie with subtitle later...
