Follow the steps below to select closed captions for TV pro- gramming. Not all TV programs and commercials have closed captions or all types of closed captions (second language, half-screen text, etc.). If closed captioning is not broadcast, you cannot receive it. This does not indicate a problem with the TV/VCR/DVD. Check your TV program listings for shows with closed captions.

If the TV/VCR/DVD receives poor quality television signals, the captions may contain errors, or there might be no cap- tions at all. Some possible causes of poor quality signals are:

●Automobile ignition noise

●Electric motor noise

●Weak signal reception

●Multiplex signal reception (ghosts or screen flutter)

●Playing poorly recorded or worn videotapes.

27DVCR55S specifications

The Philips 27DVCR55S is a versatile television designed for those who appreciate both the convenience of modern technology and the nostalgia of classic home entertainment. This model features a 27-inch screen, making it a suitable size for various room environments, whether it’s a cozy bedroom, a rustic den, or even a stylish living room.

One of its standout features is the built-in VCR, allowing users to enjoy their collection of VHS tapes seamlessly. This integration bridges the gap between traditional and contemporary viewing habits, catering to those who still cherish old movies and cassette collections. The VCR is designed with ease of use in mind, ensuring simple playback and recording functionality, which can often be a cumbersome process with separate devices.

In terms of display technology, the Philips 27DVCR55S employs a high-quality CRT (Cathode Ray Tube) screen. While many modern TVs lean towards LCD or LED displays, the CRT offers rich color reproduction and deep blacks, making it ideal for viewing older films and shows that benefit from a soft, cinematic look. The viewing angle is commendably wide, ensuring that everyone in the room can enjoy their favorite programs without missing any details.

The television also incorporates a diverse range of connectivity options. It features multiple AV inputs, allowing users to connect DVD players, gaming consoles, and other devices without hassle. The addition of coaxial and composite inputs ensures compatibility with a myriad of devices that consumers might still be using.

Sound quality is another noteworthy aspect of the Philips 27DVCR55S. The integrated speaker system is designed to deliver clear audio, complementing the visual experience nicely. While it may not compete with modern surround sound systems, it offers sufficient performance for casual viewing.

Moreover, the Philips brand is well-known for its commitment to reliable performance and durability. The 27DVCR55S exemplifies this through its robust build quality, ensuring that it can withstand years of use.

In conclusion, the Philips 27DVCR55S is an appealing choice for those looking to enjoy both classic tapes and traditional television viewing. With its integrated VCR, quality CRT display, ample connectivity options, and solid sound system, it offers a nostalgic yet functional home entertainment solution that stands the test of time.
