Closed Captions (CC) are a standardized method of encoding text into an NTSC television signal. The text can be displayed by a TV with a built-in decoder or by a separate decoder. All TVs larger than 13 inches sold in the US since 1993 have Closed Caption decoders. Closed Captions can be carried on DVD, videotape, broadcast TV, cable TV, and so on. Even though the terms caption and subtitle have similar definitions, captions commonly refer to on-screen text specifically designed for hearing impaired viewers, while subtitles are straight transcriptions or translations of the dialogue. Captions are usually positioned below the person who is speaking, and they include descriptions of sounds (such as gunshots or closing doors) and music. Closed captions are not visible until the viewer activates them. Open captions are always visible, such as subtitles on foreign videotapes. Closed Captions on DVDs are carried in a special data channel of the MPEG-2 video stream and are automatically sent to the TV. You can't turn them on or off from the DVD player. Subtitles, on the other hand, are DVD subpictures, which are full-screen graphical overlays (see 3.4 for technical details). One of up to 32 subpicture tracks can be turned on to show text or graphics on top of the video. Subpictures can also be used to create captions. To differentiate from NTSC Closed Captions and from subtitles, captions created as subpictures are usually called "captions for the hearing impaired."
SpongeBob is closed captioned. Just turn on the Caption setting on you TV.
I can't turn off the closed caption please help
Yes. Closed caption information is transmitted in non-viewable portions of the picture. A TV with a closed caption decoder is needed though.
Netflix is actually equipped with subtitles/captions. You just have to find the option to change the audio or subtitles, which is usually on the screen where you select the movie/TV episode you want to view
To play a movie in closed caption the VLC Media Player needs to be able to perform the closed caption function. If the VLC Media Player is not compatible with closed captioning, it cannot be done.

Closed caption decoders work by receiving the broadcast signal containing the closed caption text, then converting and displaying this text on the screen in a readable format for viewers. The decoder identifies the closed captioning data embedded in the video signal and presents it as text on the screen in synchronization with the audio content. Viewers can typically adjust the appearance of the closed captions to suit their preferences.
