SMART HELP
Due to the increased data
capacity within the DTV
broadcast system (10 times the
capacity of the analog NTSC
system) the ATSC version of
Closed Caption will allow for
simultaneous transmission of
multiple languages and offer
various reading level options for
the captioned material (when
available).
Note: The added resolution of active scan lines for
DTV (720p or 1080i) broadcasts, as opposed to analog
NTSC TV (525), can also provide for more defined
Closed Caption system character fonts and objects.
The ATSC display window for CC may be more on
the level of a computer with text windows containing a
variety of colors, size, and other object attributes.

Note: The “On during Mute” setting under the
