Closed Caption (only available for TV video input channel) Many
programs are encoded with closed-captioning information, which lets
you display the audio portion of a program as text on the TV screen.
Closed captioning is not available on all channels at all times. Only
specific programs encoded with closed-captioning information are
applicable. The closed caption options are:
Closed Caption Setting Choose the way closed captioning
information is shown on the screen.
On Captioning information always appears, when available.
Off No captioning information displayed.
On When Mute Displays captioning information, when
available, whenever the TV’s sound is muted by pressing the
MUTE button. The captioning information is not displayed
when the sound is not muted.
Closed Caption Mode Choose which captioning mode is used for
displaying captioning information. If you are unsure of the
differences among the modes, you may prefer to leave the closed
captioned mode set to CC1, which displays complete text of the
program in the primary language in your area.
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, or
sources:
•CC1 and Text1 are the primary caption and text services. The
captioning or text is displayed in the same language as the
program’s dialog.
•CC3 and Text3 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 Text2 and Text4 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.
Menu Time-out Set how long you want the menus to appear on-
screen (starting at 10 seconds up to 180 seconds).
Menu Position Select where you want the menu to appear on the TV.
