Will digital-to-analog converter boxes used to convert over-the-air digital TV broadcasts for viewing on analog TV sets also convert digital closed captioning?
Yes. FCC rules require that digital-to-analog converter boxes be able to convert over-the-air digital closed captioning so that analog TV sets can decode and display them. Most coverter boxes also have the capability to decode and display the captions themselves, meaning that the viewer could use the settings on the converter box or a button on the converter box remote to turn on the captions.
