Technical Information

Closed Caption (CC)

For viewing Closed Caption of digital broadcasting, set the aspect ratio to FULL. (If viewing with H-FILL, JUST, ZOOM or 4:3, characters will be cut off.)

The closed caption is not displayed when you use HDMI connection.

If analog connected equipment is used for displaying or recording, closed caption (CC) should be set On/Off on the connected equipment.

The CC mode setting of the TV will not affect the analog input.

If a digital program is being output in analog format, the CC data will also be output in analog format.

If digital connected equipment is used for input, CC should be set to On on either the connected equipment or the TV.

If CC is set On on both the connected equipment and the TV, captions from each unit will overlap.
