What is Closed Caption?
Closed Captioning allows you to read the voice content of television programmes on the screen.
Designed to help the hearing impaired, this feature uses on screen 'text boxes’ to show dialogue
and conversations while the television programmes is in progress. Closed Caption is also
available for some laser discs and video tapes. There are four caption mode (Caption 1, 2,3 or 4)
and four text mode (Text 1, 2,3 or 4). They may be transmitted simultaneously and can be used
for different ianuguages and information.
Caption 1,2,3 or 4
Dialogues (and descriptions) for the action of the
captioned television programme showing on the screen.
During screening of the programme, the text can appear
up to 4 rows simultaneously anywhere on the screen.
Smith : This is Mr Brown from ABC
Company.
Tanya : How do you do Mr Brown.
Brown : How do you do.
