Digital Caption Service Setting

This allows you to configure the way you choose to view digital captioning. Select one of the digital service channels made available by the caption provider. There are six standard services. Service 1 is designated as the Primary Caption Service. This service contains the verbatim, or near-verbatim captions for the primary language being spoken in the accompanying program audio. Service 2 is designated as the Secondary Language Service. This service contains captions in a secondary language, which is a translation of the captions in the primary Caption Service. The other service sub channels are not pre- assigned. It is up to the discretion of the individual caption provider to utilize the remaining service channels.

Captions will appear on the screen during captioned broadcasts.

Dialogue (and descriptions) for the action on the captioned TV program shows on screen. Usually CC1 is the most used. CC2 can be used for alternate languages if they are being transmitted.
