After reading this thread, I had a thought. Could it be that things are different for digital because they are building CC into the technology and trying to improve things. Analog was around a long time before they added CC. They had to find a way to make CC work around a technology and they did that by adding the signal onto a line that is not visable on tv. That's why we had problems with them in the past. Now they are changing them to try to make them work better and more in time with dialog on tv. They are just doing it in a way that's so different that it's throwing us off on how to turn it on? Example
CC on analog is built in tv due to law passed few years ago.
now CC is now being decoded by cable box or etc before being delivered to TV. We are so used to turning it on using tv that the new way is throwing us off on how to make it work?
Also because it is new, they are probably experimating at our expense the best way to handle CC or subtitles. As said in last post, give them time.
I would appreicate any thoughts or comments. Like I said, it was just a thought and wanted to put that out. I am not saying I'm right or wrong. Just an observation.
