CLOSED-CAPTIONING
Closed-Captioning is hidden textual
information transmitted along with the
picture and sound. Turning Captioning
ON causes the TV to open these cap-
tions and superimpose them on the
screen.
Because different types of closed-cap-
tions can be transmitted with the
picture and sound, separate captioning
modes are provided. The captioning
modes recognized by this model are:
Analog EIA-608B and Digital EIA-708B.
Local broadcasters decide which
caption signals to transmit.
