Does MC 18 show closed captions?
« on: December 15, 2012, 04:05:17 pm »

Hello :), I am new to this forum. I am going to upgrade my HTPC and am searching the current software choices. I have been using Beyondtv since 2006 and it has been fine for my purposes. I only use it to record TV programs from a rooftop antenna through a Hauppauge 2250 capture card. My question is: Does MC18 play Closed Captions in live and recorded TV? I have been reading on and off for the last week and have not really seen a definite answer.

Is there no one who can answer this question?
It's ok to keep it simple:

1. YES, it definitely will work with Closed Captions.
2. No, Closed Captions will not work.
3. Maybe, But it is complicated with mixed results

 :) Thank you.

Any tmeframe on closed captioning from ATSC?  I'm currently evaluating JRiver MCE and am seriously considering buying it, but I'm also a heavy CC user and this could be a showstopper for me.

I am now using Windows media center with windows 8 OS and closed captions works fine.

Closed Captioning is not supported in digital TV (ATSC or DVB), only in analog TV.

Then how am I getting closed captions on over the air digital broadcasts?
