2. In the Subtitles inspector, choose options from the Language pop-up menu, the Country
pop-up menu, and the Purpose pop-up menu.
Tip: You must choose a language before you can choose a country.
There are three available options in the Purpose pop-up menu:
• Translation (Full): Outputs a full translation of all words spoken in the film using the
language of the intended territory. During playback, viewers can turn these subtitles
on or off (unlike burned-in subtitles).
• Forced: Use when a person in the video speaks a language different from the main
language of the video—for example, for a French speaker in an otherwise English-
language film. Forced subtitles can’t be turned off because they’re necessary to
understand the content of the video.
• Deaf and Hard of Hearing (SDH): Use for a full translation of all the words spoken in
the video, as well as song lyrics and sound effects (owl hooting, scream in distance,
and so on). During playback, viewers can turn subtitles for the deaf or hard of
hearing (SDH) on or off.
Tip: In the Subtitles inspector, you can also edit subtitle text, color, and placement
and adjust subtitle timing.

matching the language of the alternative audio track.
You must choose a language before you can choose a country.
• If the alternative audio track is descriptive audio, select the “Descriptive audio”
checkbox (in the Alternative Audio Properties area).
You can add multiple descriptive audio tracks (for example, in multiple languages).
Tip: You can view subtitles and closed captions or monitor one of the alternative audio
tracks in the preview area by clicking the “Choose closed captions, subtitles, and audio
language" button
and then choosing an option. See Preview jobs in Compressor.
Add chapter markers to the feature video
iTunes Store videos must include chapters so that viewers can jump directly to specific
sections of the movie. If your source video file already has chapter markers, those will
be used. If your source video file doesn’t have chapter markers, you can add them in
Compressor.
1. In the Compressor batch area, select the Feature row item or Preview row item.
2. In the preview area, navigate to the frame where you want to begin the chapter.
3. Click the “Modify marker settings” pop-up menu, then choose Chapter.
