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.
CCDisplays 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, simplified 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 Text1 and Text3 are not available.
