I couldn't find the answer in the forums...so please forgive if it's already been answered.

Between the six options i have listed...I am not sure which to pick as I have no idea what they are.

Could someone PLEASE explain each option as to what it does when selected...or better yet...just a definition (description) for each option?

I have looked online...read descriptions of 608 (for analog)... 708 (for digital)...but it doesn't really explain why I would pick each one.

Any help would be GREATLY appreciated!

I should have stated I'm not looking for an answer for any one job...more of wanting a complete knowledge of what they are/what they do.

robjenga,

Do you just want subtitles or actual captions? The former are for foreign audiences, typically. The latter are for the hearing impaired. 608 is for SD, 708 is for HD--basically. Does that help?

Thanks,
Kevin
