Captions
Captions on Digital Channels
The TV can decode captions from the ANT input only.  
Broadcasters can send up to six different captioning  selections or can send analog captions for a program 
that originated in analog format.  A TV station may broad -
cast only one or two types of captions or none at all
.
Captions on Analog Channels
The TV can decode captions from the ANT input and 
the composite 
VIDEO jacks.  Broadcasters can send 
either standard closed captions or text service.  Standard 
closed captions follow the dialogue of the program and 
display in a small section of the screen.  Text-service closed 
captions often conta
in information such as weather or 
news and cover a large portion of the screen.
IMPORTANT
•	 Analog text-service options display a large 
black or gray box on the screen when no 
caption signal is being broadcast.
•	 The	content	of	captions	is	determined	by	the	 broadcaster.  If captions show strange char -
acters, misspellings, or odd grammar, it is not 
a malfunction of the TV.
•	
Closed-caption signals are not available through 
HDMI or component jacks.  See the menus for 
devices connected to these inputs for closed-
caption decoding.
