Using Closed Captioning

Many programs are encoded with closed-captioning information, which lets you display the audio portion of a program as text on the TV screen.

Closed captioning is not available on all channels at all times. Only specific programs encoded with closed- captioning information are applicable. When a program is closed captioned, the CC icon is displayed in the channel banner. See Chapter 3 for more information about the channel banner.

Tip

If you don’t know which Closed-Caption mode to use, select CC1. CC1 is probably the mode that is used in your area. CC2, CC3, and CC4 are reserved for foreign languages, but are rarely used at this time.

Closed-Caption Modes

The TV offers eight closed-captioned modes, including four text modes.

To set the Closed-Caption Mode:

1.Select Screen from the Main menu.

2.Highlight Closed-Caption Mode and press OK (the Closed- Caption Mode appears).

3.Highlight your choice and press OK (the Screen menu appears again).

Note: The Text modes cover nearly half of the picture on the screen to display the closed-captioned text. Most broadcasters use the CC mode, which displays a few lines of captions at a time.
