Problem for DISH Network 811 HD DTV Receiver

Closed Caption [CC1] and the 811 HDTV receiver




By Bouncy - usenet poster

Hello All,

We've got a hearing impaired individual in our household and have
stumbled upon a problem we'd like your imput on, please.

We've had our 57" Sony HDTV for more than 3 years now. The closed
captioning always worked. When we got the HDTV, we went to the "setup"
menu, chose the "CC1" caption, muted the audio and on came the CC1. It
has now ceased to work with the addition of the "811" HD receiver.

We do have the HDTV hooked up to a 5.1 sound system, but that should
not interfere with the closed captioning, should it?

Regardless whether I use the origional Sony remote or the Dish Network,
we can't seem to restore the captioning.

Can you help us, please?

Many thanks for taking the time to respond!

Alain

Hi Jim!

Many, many thaks for your help! I went through the "owners manual" for
the 811 and there isn't a mention of the captioning in the index. I
would've had to call CS otherwise.

Glad that you were here to help us!

First of all - I too am a HOH person who uses CC. Digital HD transmissions
do not function with CC1.

There should be a selection for digital closed captioning in your TV. As
there is with my 42" Sony.

With that said, I'm thinking that the 811 setup has a closed captioning
option also. Main Menu option 6 I think is SETUP, then option 9 is Closed
Captioning, then 6 gets you to the Digital/Analog settings.

I'm a little confused cause I get HDTV OTA and use Satellite for all others.
However, CC works on all configurations.

Gosh - hope this helps.
