Apple TV+ MacOS app default audio language

Hi !


I'm using the apple tv+ app on a M1 Macbook Pro, my system is in french but I watch my shows in English with English subtitles


The issue I have is that the language I chose when watching a show is not saved as my default language. If I close the video player and start the episode again, the show is back in French and I have to select the language again


The only documentation I found is this : Change subtitles or languages for videos in the Apple TV app or iTunes Store - Apple Support


But that's already what I'm doing every time I start an episode on the app


That's annoying because Netflix on the other hand remembers your last configuration (prefered audio language and subtitles settings) even when you start a new show, and those settings are synced across all your devices and that on a per user basis.


Is there a setting somewhere to set that once and for all ?


Thanks !

In modern macOS versions, you can set custom default languages per app, as different from the Mac system language. This app language change includes the interface, not just the default audio language.

The subtitle language would remember the last used setting.

The audio language would try to match the language of the app or system, if available in the stream.
