I recently purchased the LG 47LH40 LCD TV & have so far kept the factory default setting. However, the caption is always streaming across the screen and is very irksome. I cant turn it off, as the Caption option is Grayed out in the Option Menu and dont know how else it can be accessed to turn it off. Thanks in advance.

SOURCE: closed captions will not disappear

Some TV will not display close caption in HD mode. This is why its Grey out in HD mode. If you switch to regular input, i can bet you your close caption will not be Grey out. The problem you are having is your cable box has close caption enable. You must go into the cable box menu and turn caption off. In some box you may have to call your cable provide for assistant.

SOURCE: Closed Caption Option

CHeck on the comcast box- you may have to turn off (POWER) then click (SELECT)select button to get into the user interface , there you may see that closed catptioning is off, turn it on and it should work.

SOURCE: no closed caption

Take your cable and put it directly into the cable input jack on the set. Then turn the CC on and see if it functions that way. If it does then that means the CC circuitry is before the comp1 inputs therefor the dvr should have it's own CC setting because the set won't display it because of design.

SOURCE: Cannot select caption? Its grayed out..

Tries the remote CC button on/off.If the station have captioning.Not in Text 1 or 2.
