Using Closed Captioning

USING CLOSED CAPTIONING

The receiver supports a variety of closed captioning formats. If turned on in the receiver, closed captioning is displayed by the receiver through the HDTV Digital Audio/Video and YPbPr outputs for each format.

The TV SET OUT, RCA video, and S-VIDEO receiver outputs provide closed captioning information in the audio/video signal. However a closed-captioning compatible TV is required to decode and display the captioning information the screen. Standard definition display of closed captioning is a function of the TV and not the receiver. Refer to your TV manual for enabling and setting up these closed captioning options.

Note: While the Program Guide information might show "CC" for a program, closed captioning information is provided by programmers and guide data providers to Dish Network. Therefore, while best efforts are made to provide the most accurate information, DISH Network is not ultimately responsible for the accuracy of Program Guide and Closed Captioning information provided by others.
