  • Systems and methods for adjusting subtitles size on a first device and causing simultaneous display of the subtitles on a second device
    Patent number: 10631064
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided herein for adapting, when multiple users are consuming a media asset on a primary device, the size of subtitles presented on the primary device upon determining that a user located closer to the primary device (i.e., first user) than a user farthest from the primary device (i.e., second user) is discontent with the size of the subtitles. The media guidance application may determine that there is a secondary device, associated with and in the vicinity of the second user, that is suitable for displaying subtitles. The media guidance application may, upon determining that the second user is currently not using the secondary device, present subtitles for the second user on the secondary device. The media guidance application may then adjust the size of the subtitles presented with the media asset on the primary device to a size more suited for the first user.
