[QUOTE="shastar, post: 1506469, member: 29526"] [b]My research so far ....[/b] I went to Best Buy Geek Squad. Two of the guys and myself went to their home movie theater area. We did a lot of testing on different DVD & BR players. After we all figured it out, THEN the manager from the back told one of them he already knew what we had just discovered. The HDMI cable can only hold the highest technology signals with all those pixels, and there is no more room for CC signals. The old AV2 analog (white, red & yellow) cord can transmit the CC because it is not transmitting all those wonderful pixels. Useless to by the HDTVs if I have to go back to AV2 cords, but I have already bought the HDTVs with HDMI cables. With more research, I found the Digital TV Converter box is necessary to transmit the closed-captioning for hearing impaired. I happen to have one by RCA that I was using on my father's old TV when the industry dropped analog TV transmissions. So, I tried it out on my Blue Ray, but finding their is no input plug on Blue Ray that will match the plug on the converter cord. So, as soon as I have time I will try it on my other DVD player. I will post again or if you have any replies, I will check it out too. [/QUOTE]
