+The default position of subtitles tends to hide important details like the mode line or minibuffer. If you use `mpv` to view videos, you can adjust the position of subtitles with the "r" and "R" keyboard shortcuts, which run `add sub-pos -1` and `add sub-pos +1` respectively. 
+
+Alternatively, you can configure your MPV to resize videos and show
+subtitles underneath. On Linux, you can create or edit
+`~/.config/mpv/mpv.conf`. On Windows, if compiled with MinGW, MPV will
+look for your configuration in `%APPDATA%\mpv\mpv.conf`. You can
+override the directory that contains mpv.conf by setting the
+`MPV_HOME` environment variable on either system.
+<https://mpv.io/manual/stable/#configuration-files> has more details
+on the format and location of the config file.
+
+For regular use, you might prefer to watch horizontally-centered
+videos with centered subtitles underneath. Here's the `mpv.conf` for
+that.
+
+```

+video-zoom=-0.15
+video-align-x=1
+video-align-y=-1
+sub-use-margins=yes
+sub-scale-by-window=yes
+sub-pos=103
+sub-margin-x=110
+sub-margin-y=60
+sub-align-x=left

+When we broadcast videos for EmacsConf 2022, we place them on the top
+right so that there's room underneath to display a conference logo and
+a talk URL, and we align the text left so that it doesn't feel like
+it's shifting around a lot. If you want to do the same, here's the
+configuration:
+
+```
+# Positioning
+video-zoom=-0.15
+video-align-x=1
+video-align-y=-1
+sub-use-margins=yes
+sub-scale-by-window=yes
+sub-pos=103
+sub-margin-x=110
+sub-margin-y=60
+sub-align-x=left
+# Style
+sub-color="1/0.82/0"
+sub-blur=0.2
+sub-scale=0.9
+sub-font-size=30
+sub-border-size=0
+sub-border-color=0/1
+sub-shadow-color=0/1
+sub-shadow-offset=1.2
+sub-ass-force-style=Kerning=yes
+sub-ass-line-spacing=0
