# requiresFullSubtitles

A Boolean value that indicates whether someone can disable the display of subtitles.

```
var requiresFullSubtitles: Bool { get set }
```

## Discussion

When this property value is `true`, the subtitle menu doesn’t present the Off or Auto options, because subtitles are always displayed, if available.

The default value is `false`.
