Its possible to caption a live program by using a process called real-time captioning, which creates captions instantly.

ming information.

 

• Your TV might not receive caption signals normally in

the following situations.

 

 

 

1. Poor reception conditions are encountered:

• IGNITION:

Picture may flutter, drift, suffer from black spots, or horizontal streaking. Usually caused by interference from automobile ignition systems, neon lamps, electrical drills, and other electrical appliances.

• GHOSTS:

Ghosts are caused when the TV sig- nal splits and follows two paths. One is the direct path and the other is reflected off tall buildings, hills or other objects. Changing the direc- tion or position of the antenna may improve reception.

• SNOW:

If your receiver is located at the weak, fringe area of a TV signal, your picture may be marred by small dots. It may be necessary to install a special antenna to improve the pic- ture.

2.An old, bad, or illegally recorded tape is being played.

3.Strong, random signals from a car or airplane interfere with the TV signal.

4.The signal from the antenna is weak.

5.The program wasn’t captioned when it was produced, transmitted, or taped.
