Closed Caption

Closed captions are data that are hidden in the video signal on specific discs, invisible without a special decoder. The difference between subtitles and captions is that subtitles are intended for hearing persons and captions are for the hearing impaired. Subtitles rarely show all of the audio. For example, captions show sound effects (e.g., “phone ringing” and “footsteps”), while subtitles don’t.

Before you select this function, please ensure that the disc contains closed captions information and your TV set also has this function.
