Select Closed Captioning
You can turn on or off the closed caption decoder
screen.You can also choose black or gray as the
background color for the closed caption area.
IMPORTANT
The content
of captions are determined
by the
broadcaster.
If your captions show strange
characters,
misspellings,
or odd grammar,
it is
not a malfunction
of theTV.
There are two types of captioning that broadcasters can send: standard and text.
Standard captioning follows the dialogue of the characters on-screen and displays in a small section
of the screen when the broadcaster is sending the closed captioning.
Text captioning often contains information such as weather or news, Text captioning blocks a
portion
of the program that is on-screen.
Your TV can decode four different standard captioning signals and four different text captioning
signals from each TV station. However, each station may broadcast only one or two captioning
signals, or none at all.
When setting the decoder, you can choose to display:
one of four standard captioning signals ( CC I, CC2, CC3, CC4)
one of four text captioning signals (Text I,Text 2, Text 3, Text 4)
captions when mute (On if mute)
no captions when mute (Off)
If you select"On
if mute" the standard captioning signal (CC I) will appear whenever you use the
MUTE button.
If you set the decoder to a"standard"
caption setting or "On if mute" and tune to a
broadcaster that is not sending a caption signal, no captions will appear.
IMPORTANT
A large black or gray box will appear
on your
TV screen, if you have selected
text captioning,
and no text signal is being broadcast.
