# Configure subtitle burn-in

You can burn DVB or Teletext subtitles into the video stream.

You must have defined one or more DVB or Teletext subtitle(s) (see [Configure input subtitle selection](/beam/live-encoder/configure/input/subtitle)).

* From the Encoding tab, go to the Subtitle burn-in configuration section.

* Click Add to create a new subtitle burn-in configuration or click  to edit an existing one. The Subtitle burn-in configuration window is displayed.

* In the input value, select the DVB or Teletext subtitle(s) that you previously created from the Input tab.

* Configure the video encoding:

For each video stream, click  then go to the Subtitle settings section and select a subtitle burn-in that you just created.

* Click OK to validate.

* Click Save and continue to save your modifications and go to another tab.

* Add subtitle(s) to output stream(s).
