Closed captioning is not available. Is it because it's not implemented yet or is this information not available in the component video standard?

Also, it doesn't work when I have my Pro HD in QAM tuning mode. I know the CC info is in the QAM stream.

Depends on your source. For instance my Tivo S3 won't work for CC in the player but my S2 and S1s do. Course the Tivo S3 has it's own CC so no problem.

Easiest way to find out if your SP2.0 is seeing the extra info in the stream is to do an ALT-Shift-I and go down to the XDS info. If it is blank your source device is not sending that info.

Have a Sansa device or MP3 player, then check out The latest!

My guess is that your S2 is connected via RCA/composite cables? I think the CC info is retained in this medium. I still don't see any XDS data while tuning QAM channels. I know this information is present since my TV can decode the CC in QAM.

Maybe Megazone can shed some light on this.

I know closed captions do not work over component video. But I thought it was working on the internal tuner - you're not getting it on the tuner at all?

This is correct. I am not getting captions on the internal QAM tuner.

If only I was selected to work on the beta team :(

OK, I dug into this. It looks like they are indeed broken at this time, that will be fixed.
