Closed Caption Problem My TV is showing captions that are misspelled.
Possible Remedy You are watching a live broadcast and spelling errors made by the closed captioning production company may pass through uncorrected. A prerecorded program will not show any misspelled words because of the normal time available for editing the captions. Captions that axe delayed a few seconds behind the actual dialogue are common for live broadcasts. Most captioning production companies can display a dialogue to a maximum of 220 words per minute. If a dialogue exceeds that rate, selective editing is used to insure that the captions remain upqo-date with the current TV screen dialogue. Interference caused by building, power lines, thunderstorms, may cause scrambled or incomplete captions to appear. etc.
