Instruction manual

Step 1: pick a category

Scroll down on the homepage to browse different movie genres. Click on the titles (e.g. Science fiction) to see all the movies in that genre. Alternatively, use the categories in the menu to narrow down your search.

If you want to search more creatively use the categories and tags at the start of each content item. Here you can select from a wider range of categories such as ‘highly rated’ or ‘many views’. Tags are even more fine-grained, letting you pick specific movie decades, actors and publishers.

Step 2: add subtitles

Turn on the subtitles on YouTube by clicking the subtitle icon at the bottom of the video. Go to the Settings icon next to the subtitle icon to pick the language and font size. Unfortunately, sometimes the subtitle option is not available for a particular movie. The option ‘Voice boost’ can be a good alternative in such cases.

Step 3: cast to tv (optional)

Open the YouTube app on both your smart TV and your phone or tablet. Select the video that you want to watch and tap ‘cast’ in the video player. Choose the smart TV that you want to cast to, and wait for it to connect.
