Viewing Cosed Captions

Yo_]rTV decodes and displays the closed captions that are broadcast with certain TV shows.

These captions are usually subtitles for the hearing irnpaired or foreignqanguage trans-

lations. All VCI_s 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 yol]r television sche& fie

and on the tape's packaging: E_ •
