Viewing Closed Captions

Your TV decodes and displays the closed captions that are broadcast with certain TV shows. These captions are usually subtitles for the hearing impaired or foreign-language trans- lations. All VCRs record the closed caption signal from television programs, so home-record- ed video tapes also provide closed captions. Most pre-recorded commercial video tapes pro- vide closed captions as well. Check for the closed caption symbol in your television schedule

and on the tape’s packaging: .

4.8 CHAPTER FOUR: SPECIAL FEATURES

Misspellings and unusual

characters sometimes occur during closed caption transmissions, especial- ly those of live events. There may be a small delay before captions appear when you change channels. These are not malfunctions of the TV.

In caption mode, captions

appear at the bottom of the screen, and they usually cover only a small portion of the picture.

In text mode, information unrelated to the program, such as news or weather, is displayed. Text often covers a large portion of the screen.

Different channels and fields

display different information: Field 2 carries additional information that supplements the information in Field 1. (For example, Channel 1 may have subtitles in English, while Channel 2 has subtitles in Spanish.)
