What is SAP?

Some programs offer additional language soundtracks, or Secondary Audio Programs (SAPs), that allow you to listen to a program in a different language. SAP soundtracks are supplied by content providers and aren't available in all programs.

Changing your preferred audio language while watching a program

You can easily change your preferred audio language while watching any program that includes an SAP.

1. On the program playback page, scroll over the bottom part of the screen to display the video controls.
2. Scroll over the SAP icon. If the SAP icon is dimmed or not shown, an SAP isn't available for this program.
   
3. In the SAP pop-up box, select the language you want to hear. This setting applies to the video player, so this turns on your language preference for all programs, not just the one you're currently watching.
