Designed to help the hearing
impaired, this feature uses
on-screen "text boxes" to
show dialogue and conversa-
tions while the TV program is
in progress.
Note: Broadcast stations will
often use spelling abbrevia-
tions, symbols, dropouts and
other grammatical shortcuts
in order to keep pace with the
on-screen action. These type
factors vary upon the source
of the captioned text material
and do not indicate a need
for service on the part of the
TV.
