my 98 year old Mom has a remote for her TV that has become too complicated for her. Can she get closed captioning with this.

As long as the Closed Captioning mode on the TV has already been activated, yes. Closed Captioning really is more of a function of the TV than the remote.

I gave this as a gift and she does not use the remote. I would try to search the internet for sylvia to get the answer.

As long as the original program has close caption you shouldn't be concerned. I tested the feature on a recorded program and the spoken text did show on the screen after turning this feature on by pressing the "CC/CS" button on the remote to the appropriate setting. The text can take up quite a bit of room on the screen (if a lot is being said) but it's there.

if your decide is not in their database, you can teach it by using your existing remote. That's how setup my ancient DVB tuner.

I couldn't get this to work, maybe because I have an old TV, even though I have a digital cablebox (and ran it through that) so I don't know if closed captions would work. it gets recorded with a VCR, on tape. I bought several products that supposedly captured TV with a Windows 7 computer and none of them would work (pick up on the TV on the computer). If and when I get a new type TV I'll try it again. I'm not saying this product won't work, just that it didn't for me and my older model TV.

This TV has CC(Close Captioning). It can be turned on via the remote. People's spoken words will appear on the screen so your mom can read the dialogue instead of straining to hear them speak.

I am not sure there are no buttons for recording of shows I do know this it made it possible for my Mom (91) to watch tv again

I'm no expert on this, but I think 'closed caption' is part of the resident menu on the television. If you go to set-up with the TV remote you should find out how to get the closed captions. If that doesn't work, got to ask.com and ask the same question, you'll generally get a lot of step by step answers through youTube.

I got the cable guy to do it for me I was lucky it was complicated. I tried to do it again on my own with another remote but no luck. Hope your luck is better than mine.

I learned the hard way that CC does not work on an HDMI connection.There is a faster way to change closed captioning on a COMCAST DCT64--:1) TV and cable box are on.2) Using COMCAST remote, press these buttons in order:3) CABLE ... POWER ... MENU4) Use arrows to select and/or change CLOSED CAPTION5) When CLOSED CAPTION IS ENABLED, the CC options may be changed.6) Press MENU to save changes7) Press POWER to turn the cable box back on

I see what you saw in the manual so I tried in a HD station with my cable box over HDMI and I could not select caption from the menu. I think the reason for this is because the cable box has its own closed captioning. I went into the settings for the box and was able to use closed captioning that way.

Just go into your "Menu" then setup...select "closed caption" and it should fix you right up!

I'm also looking at this as a wearable reminder for my senior Mother. She is someone that gets frustrated with the fancy cable remote for TV. When she takes her shots and medicine, does she have to reprogram the whole thing to remind her in 4 hours? Every 4 hours she needs a shot and/or medicine. Be nice if she had a 2 step sequence to reset it. This button , then press 4 ...ex.

deshkaman,Closed Captioning is available on the tuner and Apps when enabled by the TV. If you're using a cable/satellite box or Blu-Ray player connected with HDMI, you may want to enable the closed caption options on the cable/sat box or Blu-ray player instead. The closed caption or subtitle option needs to be enabled at the source level for those items rather than the TV level. Thanks for your interest in Samsung products.--Mr. S

I can't say for sure but the speaker is able to learn remotes with a little programming. Just follow the instructions. I got my Directv remote to work. It's a really awesome speaker.

Like most HD televisions the tv does not decode the captions for HD cable programs etc. You need to use the cable remote to turn on the captions via the cable box, and they should work. Expect a lot of caption errors especially with the local stations since many do not carry the digital HD captions. I would also google the internet for captions and HD tvs/cable and you'll see that it is really a mess.

Some Dish and DirecTV receivers do not include the closed caption stream. I find it frustrating but you may need to find the solution through your content provider rather than through LG.
