Question about Toshiba MD20Q41 20 in. TV/DVD Combo

Captions We inherited the above with the Toshiba remote... however, NO owner's manual or any instructions. There is a printed caption on all of the time. It is irritating. HOW DO I GET "CAPTIONS" OFF? I know that this is a dumb question, but it is driving me nuts... I have pushed every button on the remote! Thank you, Carole [email protected]

Bill:

YOU are an absolute Angel from Heaven!

I now see the VERY SMALL light gray writing that clearly says, "closed caption". I was side-tracked by the much clearer print that says "SKIP"...

I feel like a complete idiot, but then again, that is not unusual!

IF you are able to send the manual, I will greatly appreciate it.

Can it just live on my computer as a "saved" item in my e-mail?

Thank you again,
Carole

Carol I'll try sending the owner's manual to your personal addy... On the remote, in the center field area there are a row of three buttons, the center button larger than the rest. And right below that a row of four buttons. The one on the right is the CC button. Press that and see if the message disappears... Again I will try sending you the manual.. Bill

How do i turn on the caption with universal remote RCr311W to a sanyo tv moel#DS27820 ?

Here is the link to the User's Manual for that universal remote control:

http://www.voxxsupport.com/images/User%20Manuals%20-%20FAQ's/RCR311W_DOC_OM.pdf

Unfortunately there is no dedicated button on that particular universal remote for operating the Closed Captioning feature on your TV.

You can try using the MENU button on that remote in order to access the AUDIO OPTIONS on your TV. Then see if you can activate the CLOSED CAPTIONING from there. See page 5 of the above manual for instructions on how to operate the MENU button on that remote.

Otherwise you will have to use the original factory remote control that came with the TV, or go out and buy a more expensive / advanced universal remote control with all the additional features and buttons that you require.

Good luck.

Joe.

How do You turn on the captioning for a sanyo tv model #DS27820 ?

First of all, thank you very much for choosing FIXYA today for your online technical support needs.

Here is a direct link to the ONLINE USER'S MANUAL for that model:

http://dl.owneriq.net/6/6c96385c-47d9-4e52-8deb-31912df9ddee.pdf

To view the Owner's Manual with Operating Instructions just use your mouse to click on the link, which is the underlined and blue highlighted section of text just above.

This will open a new web browser page automatically for you and allow you to view the information at the website indicated and the contents of the Owner's Manual.

You may need ADOBE READER installed on your computer to read PDF documents, although many computers already have this type of utility pre-installed.

You can download this free at WWW.ADOBE.COM if necessary. Click on the DOWNLOAD ADOBE READER button on right side of the ADOBE home page when you get there, then follow the onscreen instructions to install the software on your computer.

See page 18 of the manual for dtailed instructions and illustrations on HOW TO OPERATE THE CLOSED CAPTIONING feature.

Basically you just press the CAPTION button on your remote control. Then press the ZERO (0) key on the remote control number keypad until you get to the CAPTION 1 setting. Then just wait for the CLOSED CAPTIONING text to appear onscreen

I truly hope that was helpful to you Michael.

Good luck and take care.

Joe.

I was given a sony fd Trinitron WEGA and cannot get the closed caption to work. I go to menu and then to caption and select CC 1 but nothing happens. Can you advise?

Try pressing the DISPLAY button on the remote until the test on the screen says CC1 ON.
Then just wait until the closed captioning text appears a few seconds later.

Here is a link to the User's Manual for your set in case you do not have it already:

Click on the DOWNLOAD ADOBE READER button on right side of the ADOBE home page when you get there, then follow the onscreen instructions to install the software on your computer.

See page 3 of the manual for a diagram of the remote control buttons. DISPLAY is button #15.

See page 25 of the manual for complete instructions on setting up the closed captioning feature.

I hope that was helpful to you, good luck and take care.

Need to know how to put the tv on close caption

Captioned programs are marked in TV listings by "CC". so press the cc button on the remote and the closed caption option will be applied.press that cc button again to turn off the closed caption option.
1) Check the size and manufactured year of your television. If it was made after 1993 and is larger than 13 inches, it has a closed captioning system built into it. Otherwise, you may need to purchase a separate closed caption system, which are available at a number of online outlets.

2)Turn on your TV and access the menu for closed captioning. The precise location of the menu varies by television set. Most are accessible by pressing the "Audio" or "Set Up" menu on your remote, then scrolling down to the "CC" or "Closed Captioning" option. Check your owner's manual for precise instructions.
3)Turn the closed captioning option to the "On" position. It will then run closed captions for every program that broadcasts them. Newer sets may allow you to adjust the size, font and colors of the closed captioning letters to fit your individual tastes.
4)Tune to a particular program for a few minutes to make sure the closed captions are working. Note that while many broadcasts run closed captioning, not all of them do. If the captions don't appear, check your TV listing to ensure the program includes them.
5)If you're watching a DVd on your TV, access the DVD's "Set Up" menu. It should have captioned options, which allow you to show captions in English and possibly other languages as well.
thanks.

Closed caption

Closed caption wont turn off was solved by Bresnan tech. He told me the only way was to push the power button on my remote & then push the menu button right away & it would bring up a white screen & cc would be on it. I could't get it to work so I pushed the power button on my remote & the menu button on my motorola cable box & up came the screen & closed caption was on it. I disabled it & it took off the closed caption. Hope this helps
