Direct Button Operation Closed Captions and Digital Closed Captions Your TV is equipped with an internal Closed Caption decoder. It allows you to view conversations, narration and sound effects as subtitles on your TV. Closed Captions are available on some TV programs and on some VHS home video tapes at the discretion of the program provider. Digital Closed Caption service is a new caption service available only on digital TV programs (also at the discretion of the service provider). It is a more flexible system than the original Closed Caption system, because it allows for a variety of caption sizes and font styles. When the Digital Closed Caption service is in use, it will be indicated by the appearance of a 3-letter abbreviation that also indicates the language of the Digital Closed Captions: ENG (English), SPA (Spanish), FRA (French) or other language codes. Not all programs and VHS videotapes offer closed captions. Please look for the "1" symbol to ensure that captions will be shown. In the Closed Caption system, there can be more than one caption service provided. Each is identified by its own number. The "CC1" and "CC2" services display subtitles of TV programs superimposed over the program's picture. In the Closed Caption system, the "Text1" or "Text2" services display text that is unrelated to the program being viewed (e.g., weather or news). These services are also superimposed over the program currently being viewed. 1 Press CC. • This will present the Closed Caption information display. 2 Press CC while the Closed Caption information is still on the screen. • Press repeatedly until you select the desired closed caption service. Air DIGITAL 22.1 Audio : STEREO Video : 480p (4:3) CC : 1/2 CC1 Ratings : NONE Closed Caption information • Depending on the number of caption services in the signal being received, you will see information such as 1/2 or 1/4 displayed. 1/2 means "the first of two services". Example: If a program has three services (Digital CC(ENG), CC1 and Text1), the closed caption display will toggle in this sequence: 1/3 ENG 2/3 CC1 3/3 Text1 Off • The CC button keeps a record of the last service selected in its memory. If the last closed caption mode (e.g. 1/3 ENG) you selected is not available for the next program, or on another channel, the closed caption service that is available is automatically selected, and this service appears in parentheses, e.g. "1/3(CC1)". Closed Caption services that appear in parentheses will not be stored in the CC button's memory as your last selected service. Only services that you have selected with the CC button are stored. Examples: In a case where there are two closed caption services provided (for instance, Digital CC(ENG) and CC1), and Digital CC(ENG) is displayed as your current selection, if Digital CC(ENG) is not broadcast for the next program, the other closed caption service, CC1, will be displayed in parentheses. A closed caption service appears in parentheses because the service you selected is not available and a different service is displayed on your screen. "1/1(CC1)" is displayed instead of "1/2/ENG". NOTE • When "Power Saving" is set to "Standard" or "Advanced", the Power Saving leaf icon appears on the channel information window. See page 24 for details of Power Saving settings. • See page 25 for detailed closed caption settings. • When the program contains no closed caption, "--" displays in the closed caption information. • If the language code, e.g. "ENG", is not found on Digital TV programs, "--" will be shown. • Four kinds of closed caption service (CC1, CC2, Text1, Text2) are potentially available, but a broadcast may contain none or only some of these services at the discretion of the program provider. • When a web page is displayed, Closed Captions are not available. • You can have the same settings by choosing "Change CC" on the menu items. (See page 24.) VIEW MODE You can select the screen size. 1 Press VIEW MODE. • The View Mode menu displays. • The menu lists the View Mode options selectable for the type of video signal currently being received. 2 Press VIEW MODE or a/b while the View Mode menu is displayed to select a desired item on the menu. • You can sequentially select a View Mode that has its own aspect ratio. NOTE • You can have the same settings by choosing "View Mode" on the menu items. (See page 24.) • Each time you press VIEW MODE when a browser screen is shown, the display pattern toggles between a website- only screen and a TV+Web screen. • You may not be able to change the View Mode while in 3D mode.
