Closed Captioning
You may set the type of captioning displayed. Choices within the Closed
Captioning menu are: Caption Display, Analog Captions, Digital Captions,
Caption Priority, and Caption Style.
Caption Display
The Caption Display menu displays a choice list that lets you choose when
closed captioning information is shown on the screen. HDMI/DVI input is not
supported by Closed Captioning (CC); try the device’s menu system for CC
options.
On Captioning information is always shown when it’s available on a
channel or input.
Off No captioning information is displayed.
On When Muted Captioning information is only shown when available
and the TV’s sound is muted. (To mute the sound, press the MUTE button
on the remote control and captioning information will appear on the screen,
if available.)
Notes: Use the CC button on the remote to toggle CC on and off. Go to
the remote section for more information. Changing channels or inputs
restores CC to the default setting.
If you turned off the speakers in the Audio menu (Fixed Output,
Speakers Off), Closed Captioning won’t appear when you press the
MUTE button on the remote even when you choose On when Muted.
Analog Captions
You can select a closed caption mode, which is the mode, or source, used for
displaying captioning information for analog channels or digital channels, if
available. The content of CC and Text are different; you can select which one
you want to see on the screen.
CC Displays information at any position on the screen. It overlays the text
on top of the picture as it is received.
Text Displays information at one particular position (such as the bottom
third) of the screen. You cannot see the picture underneath the text.
You can choose between eight closed caption modes:
• CC1 and Text 1 are the primary caption and text services. The
captioning or text is displayed in the same language as the program’s
dialog.
• CC3 and Text 3 serve as the preferred data channels. The captioning
or text is often a secondary language translation, simplifi ed English,
or displayed at a slower rate.
• CC2 and CC4 and Text 2 and Text 4 are rarely available and
broadcasters use them only in special conditions, such as when CC1
and CC3 are not available, or Text 1 and Text 3 are not available.
