How to activate Closed Captions on JVC S-VHS deck?
I recently acquired a JVC HR-DVS3U from the venerable lordsmurf (which I could not be happier with). However, unrelated to any capture projects, I thought I would test the closed caption functionality of the VCR because I'm a little hard of hearing -- and I can't seem to figure it out. I read the manual. The only thing it mentions about closed-captions is that Video Stabilization must be turned off for them to work. But even with that setting turned off and a CC-embedded tape in the player, I can't seem to figure out how to make them display.
Does anyone here know how to turn on subtitles? :question: |
Did you look at all the VCR menus? I vaguely remember this, but rarely used the feature (90s, 2000s).
Remember than frame TBCs will usually nuke the CC data. You also usually cannot capture the CC data. I vaguely remember discussions about this with MPEG in ATI MMC, but again that was 15-20 years ago. |
Even with TBC/DNR/Video Stabilization settings all set to off, no dice.

Are you sure the tape contains the CC data?

I have a new theory: I always thought Closed Captions were decoded on the VCR end. But perhaps they are decoded on the television end. Perhaps there's a TV setting to extract the CC data from the composite video stream, whether it comes from a VCR, cable broadcast, etc. Typical problems, I've lost my old CRT remote :smack: But I'll test that theory if I find it :congrats: |
Yes, the TV does that.
Where were you trying to see those? VirtualDub or somwhere? The line TBC doesn't strip CC. Frame TBC usually will. But not line. I know TBC-1000 does, don't recall about green AVT-8710. |
I prefer usually use VIDBOX VHS to DVD 8.0. Seems work no bad and make quality digital video.
Like in this review [removed] |
People who do reviews like that have no skills in converting videos, They are as clueless as the people in the "Legacy Box" who use the same devices.
