Closed
captioning
is
a
process which
converts
the audio
portion
of
a
television program into written words which then appear
as
sub-
titles
on
the television
screen.
Closed captions allow viewers to read the dialogue and narration of television programs.
Captions
are
the subtitles of the
dialogue
and narration of television programs. For
prerecorded
programs, program
dialogue
can
be
arranged
into
captions
in advance. Its
possible to caption
a
live program by using
a
process called real-time captioning, which creates captions instantly.
Real-time
captioning
is
normally
done
by professional reporters using
a
machine shorthand sys-
tem
and
computer
for translation into
English.
Captioning is
an
effective
system
for the hearing-impaired, and it
can
also aid in teaching lan-
guage skills.

IGNITION:
Picture may flutter, drift, suffer from black
spots,
or
horizontal streaking. Usually caused by inter-
ference from automobile
ignition systems,
neon
lamps,
electrical drills, and other electrical
appli-
ances.
?
GHOSTS:
Ghosts
are
caused when the TV signal splits and follows two paths. One is the direct path and the
other is reflected off tall
buildings,
hills
or
other
objects. Changing
the direction
or
position
of the
antenna
may
improve reception.
?
SNOW:
If your receiver is located at the weak, fringe
area
of
a
TV signal,
your
picture may be marred by
small dots. It may be necessary
to
install
a
special antenna to improve
the
picture.
