What Does "non-Hi" Mean?

Hi all

Just wondering if anybody knows what the suffix "Non-hi" means, tagged at the end of a subtitle filename?

Thanks :D


Hi army,

"Non-hi" talking about subtitles usually means "Non Hearing Impared" which means that don't have the "extras" for the Hearing Impared peolple. (Sounds, descriptions, who is talking... all things that one person with hearing problems needs to understand a show)
If you take a look at addic7ed, almost all the subtitles in Addic7ed have two versions, one for "Hi" (with a symbol of an ear), these ones are for Hearing Impared people, and one for "Non Hi", these ones for people without hearing problems.

I hope this answers your question :D .
