As per Kodi v13 "Gotham", subtitles support is now built into Kodi. And instead of downloading a full subtitle download add-on, you now install one (or more) specific subtitle services.

Note:

  • This guide is now based on the new default skin Estuary, which was introduced in Kodi v17 Krypton. Other skins may also have the option of changing subtitle services, but as this is a one-time setup, using Estuary will be preferable.
  • Activating the Subtitle search window via a keyboard or other user-defined remote control, you will need to update the keymap to use this command instead: ActivateWindow(subtitlesearch)
