Viewing Closed Captions

The unit 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 translations. All VCRs record the closed caption signal from television programs, so home-recorded video tapes also provide closed captions. Most prerecorded commercial video tapes provide closed captions as well. Check for the closed caption symbol in your television schedule and on the tape’s packaging:.

Note:

The Caption feature does not work with Component, VGA,HDMI.

Not all the programs and videos will offer closed captioning. Please look for the symbol to ensure that captions will be shown.
