Here are the answers you need to know about DTVs directly from FCC's web site.

One of the faq part says that anyone is not required to buy a DTV/HDTV right away, all you need is a set up box (digital to analog decoder) to get digital programming to work on an analog TV once analog signals are shut down on Feb 17, 2009.

Please read the consumer facts that you need to know from this web site.

Thanks!

Digital Television (DTV)
 
I saw in the store "Best Buy". Guess what?! I need an advice for all of you,
I looked any of kind the televisions with along the HDTV and SDTV. HDTV is a different than DTV for affordable television. SDTV. (Standard Definition Television) I like HDTV is even better in my opinion. Anyways,
I found any of them all for SDTV not HDTV-- so, I tried to turn-on the captioning, and there is an advanced captioning that you can change anything: font, size, colors, and etc.
I saw captioning, looks great. It was from Insignia TMis a manufactured television that has advanced captioning for SDTV for example CS1, CS2, CS3, CS4.
My comments are: "Wow, it's been never seen it before in my life until now...
it would been already seen on the digital captioning that has everything that I been learned from the internet in few years ago! :eek2: " :

Oh, man. Jeez! I feel sorry for you don't have a closed-captioning for digital
broadcast. It's-- there is an advanced captioning for EIA-708, so you may find
a CS1, and you will see a menu for changes any kinds of fonts, colors, backgrounds, and size.

If you don't have advanced captioning that means "digital captioning." That only has analog captioning as Line-21 captioning. Although, you doesn't have captioning for digital broadcasts that can't carry Line-21 captioning. :(
I am sorry, I forgot to tell for making sure if you have it: when your TV is manufactured, look back
of the television for date. I think your TV before late 2006 or 2007? I dunno.
I thought that it has digital captioning in late 2006 or early 2007 in
Best Buy store in Oakdale, Minn. Maybe I am lucky to see that so I don't worry about it. Next time, you looked for advanced captioning
that it only for digital captioning on ATSC.
Look it on wikipedia.org and learn about ATSC. ;) I would sure you would like
the digital captioning really looks better than line-21 captioning. :cool:

I hope you have a digital captioning in your television. :fingersx:
Have a good night!
