A digital TV program may include analog-TV captions and
digital-TV captions, either one of the two, or neither of the
two. The setting above will determine which type of
captions the TV will display.

Analog captions will be used more often in the early years
of digital TV broadcasting. Digital captions are more
advanced and have new capabilities.

If a digital TV program has both analog and digital captions:

Use the analog captions at all times.

Use the digital captions if available, otherwise use analog.

Analog Captions

You can select a closed caption mode, which is the mode, or source, used for
displaying captioning information for analog channels or digital channels, if
available. The content of CC and Text are different; you can select which one
you want to see on the screen.

CC

Displays information at any position on the screen. It overlays the text

on top of the picture as it is received.

Text

Displays information at one particular position (such as the bottom

third) of the screen. You cannot see the picture underneath the text.

You can choose between eight closed caption modes:

CC1 and Text 1 are the primary caption and text services. The

captioning or text is displayed in the same language as the program’s
dialog.

CC3 and Text 3 serve as the preferred data channels. The captioning

or text is often a secondary language translation, simplified English, or
displayed at a slower rate.

CC2 and CC4 and Text 2 and Text 4 are rarely available and

broadcasters use them only in special conditions, such as when CC1
and CC3 are not available, or Text1 and Text3 are not available.

Digital Captions

You can select a closed caption, service mode (1-6) for digital channels.

Service 1

and Service 2 are the primary and secondary languages, respectively.

Service 3

and Service 4, 5, 6 are additional caption sources that may be

available. Specific label names may be displayed (e.g., Spanish) instead of a
generic label (e.g., Service 1), if available.

Caption Priority

You can choose whether the TV uses digital or analog captions for digital TV
programs that have both or either. The captions are displayed if turned on in
Caption Display.
