Appendix K: Closed Captions

= Appendix K: Closed Captions =
Closed Captioning is available in SageTV. To view Closed
Captions while watching a SageTV recording, check the following: 
You must be using a capture device that
supports embedding Closed Captioning data in the recording file. ATSC and QAM
tuners support Closed Captions. Also, some analog tuners support CC. Hauppauge
analog tuners generally support CC, though certain newer device driver versions
may be required. 
For analog capture devices, the Recording Quality, in Detailed
Setup: Multimedia Settings, must be set to use a DVD-style recording
quality. If you create a custom recording quality (see Appendix
H: Custom Recording Quality Settings), make sure that the custom setting
uses 10, 13, or 14 as the outputstreamtype. 
Use the Options
command during Video Playback to view the
pop-up Video Playback Options Menu. The Captions
option will show the current CC status: Captions
(Off), Captions (CC1), and Captions (CC2). Select the option to
cycle through the choices. Most captions will display using the CC1 option,
though some stations may use CC2. 
CC can not be displayed through the Hauppauge
PVR-350’s TV-out, the Hauppauge MVP, or while using Placeshifter via a remote
connection. 
CC will not display if using Overlay as the Video
Renderer and Overlay Color Keying is Enabled. In addition, some MPEG2 Video Decoder Filter settings also cannot
display CC text. 
If you are using VMR9 and can't get CC to show
up, try setting this registry value:
