I will definitely ask Time Warner about a Motorola HD tuner.

I believe that the tuner's are currently "supposed" to decode the CC, actually adding the caption to the video data

It just surprises me that the HD televisions cannot decode CC via an HDMI or component hook-up, all processing must be done by the source. Which brings me back to DVDs, some do not have subtitles, only CC, which still leaves no way to view a DVD in high-def with CC... at least not that I have discovered. I'll try the component hook-up with my upconvert DVD player tonight, but I suspect it still will not pass the CC, only subtitles (if available).
