Selecting the closed caption (U.S.A. and Canada models only)

Closed captions are data hidden in the video signals of specific discs, and are invisible without the use of a special decoder. The difference between subtitles and captions is that subtitles are intended for hearing persons and captions are for the hearing impaired. Subtitles rarely show all of the audio. For example, captions show sound effects (e.g., “phone ringing” and “footsteps”), while subtitles do not. Before you select this setting, please ensure that the disc contains closed caption information and your TV set also supports this function.
