I believe it means Subtitle for the Deaf and Hearing-Impaired.

Ask the sales person to connect antenna to TV to test CC from local stations. The store should have indoor antenna. Many local stations provide CC. If you found a TV you like, go to the TV's web site and download the manual. Read the manual to find out how to use CC (digital or analog).

That's sounds correct to me. Analog CC only works at 480i or lower. In fact analog CC will only work in interlaced mode. I have never seen a DVD player that actually outputs CC in 480p or higher. Anything higher than 480p would have to be digital CC. If you have seen one, please let me know the...

Congrats. I still can't believe graphics card actually solved the CC issue. Graphics cards are supposed to display what the computer tells them to display. I never liked ATI. I'm a big NVIDIA fan. Great job troubleshooting and solving the problem. Peter

This is interesting. I didn't expect graphics card be the root cause. Do both computers have the exact same settings? Do both computers have "Basic CC1" enabled? Do not enable "Advance Service 1". "Basic CC1" is analog and "Advance Service 1" is digital. CC from DVD is analog. Also, do both...

TVs with "HDTV built-in" means TV has built in HDTV (ATSC) tuner for use with Over the Air (OTA) antenna, NOT digital cable. In order to view HD cable programs, either get a HDTV with CableCard slot or HD cable box from your cable company. Make sure to ask if the cable box outputs CC for HD...

I have never seen any software that burns movie from computer to DVD and retain CC. This does not necessarily violate FCC rules because you can still see CC from .MS-DVR by playing back through Media Center. I have both Vista MCE and MCE 2005 and they both have same issues. Suggestion: Buy a...

Analog televisions will continue to receive analog broadcasts at least through February 17, 2009. After that, consumers will be able to connect an inexpensive receiver to their existing TV to decode TV broadcast signals, just not in high-definition. Of course, current televisions will continue...

Not likely. I have burned recorded programs to DVD disk and was not able to see CC from DVD disk. You should be able to view CC using WinTV software. I use MCE 2005 and CC works flawlessly. Peter

When I have progressive scan enabled via DVD player Setup Menu with component cables, CC does NOT work. So I had to disable progressive. The menu does not say anything about upconverting but it's probably automatically upconverting with progressive scan enabled.

You will have to wait till DVD players come with built-in digital CC for DVI/HDMI because DVI/HDMI are digital. Until then, you will have to use sub-titles from DVD disks. In order to use TV with built-in analog CC decoder with DVD players, you will have to set your DVD player to...

ATI PVR software is a piece of junk. If you already have MCE 2005, don't even think about installing ATI PVR software. CC is available in ATI PVR software but I think MCE 2005 is better. For now, there is no software that will retain CC data stream when recording to DVD disk. I do not have...

Out of all the forums I have seen, this is by far the most offensive forum. I am very disappointed that this is not properly monitored. Everybody reads this forum including CHILDREN. This is supposed to be G-rated and family oriented. Please set good examples on everyone. I know this is a free...

LuciaDisturbed Please keep the foul language to yourself. This is a public forum and please try to set a good example to others by being a little more diplomatic.

When I first bought my DVD player, it had progressive scan. I used component cables (three cables) and from menu setup, I set the output of DVD player to progressive. It turns out that CC does NOT work with progressive scan enabled. In order for CC to work, I had to set the output of DVD player...

According to the schedule set by FCC, NTSC signals (analog) should cease to exist and be replaced by ATSC signals (digital). Which means analog TVs or TV receivers with only NTSC tuners will not work anymore. This does not mean your analog TV will be completely obsoleted. But in order to...

What brand and model number digital hearing aids did you order?

I think the DarrenD was referring to unstable Closed Captioning, not pictures. If the connection was bad, won't the picture be bad as well? I find it hard to believe a bad connection would still show good/stable pictures and bad/unstable Closed Caption. Peter

Swede, I have a Sony 60" XBR rear projection LCD TV with built-in HDTV tuner for Over-The-Air (OTA) signals. I live in Reno, NV and I know it's not the same as Los Angeles. I use indoor antenna and I receive six HDTV signals (CBS, NBC, PBS, ABC, FOX, and UPN) and closed captioning works...

Thanks for the interesting links. CC blocking is new to me but that wasn't the problem. My latest problem with my CC was my last purchase was larger than my normal spending habit and the CC company red flagged it. My total CC purchase so far was not even 10% of credit limit. The CC company...
