Closed Captioning on iTunes?

Hello, we were looking at Apple TV and we were wondering if HD Movies are indeed available in Canada (New movies anyway) and if they offer Closed Captioning? If possible, could I have a sample list of movies that have closed captioning, and if there is an easy way to tell?
And... Will closed captioning work on Apple TV?
Thanks!

You will need to access the iTS via iTunes to see what is available in the iTS Canada store. iTunes will show 'Closed Captioning' when selected in the iTunes prefs>Playback as it notes if it is available. I don't know if this is available on the TV - try posting in the TV groups.
I know of no way to tell if an item is encoded before purchase.

How Do I Enable Closed Captions in iTunes 11?

In iTunes 10 I had enabled Preferences>Playback>Show closed captioning when available. This check box has been removed from iTunes 11. How do I enable closed captioning in iTunes 11?
Thanks in advance,
Steve = : ^ )

Thanks. This represents a change in conceptualisation from Apple. Previously, closed captions were part of Accessibilty and it was assumed that anyone usings captions would want them on 24/7. It still works this way on iOS devices. On the Apple TV, e.g., closed captions are enabled for the device, via Settings > General > Accessibility > Closed Captions + SDH. Once enabled, captions will be displayed for any content that has them.
Subtitles on the other hand (and subtitles may be in the same language as the audio, they're not just 'foreign') must be enabled or disabled per item of content via the Subtitles menu, which is arrived at by holding the centre button on the remote.
This was the way it used to work in iTunes also. Rolling the Closed Captions into the subtitles menu is new, though I guess it makes sense.

Closed captioning for iTunes

Does anyone know what's the best way to attached a closed captioning file to a Quicktime mp4 video for iTunes? What format of closed captioning did you use?

This is something I can't help you with, and is a bit outside the usual subject matter of this forum. A quick look in the Search result suggests that you may get answers in the Final Cut Studio forum.

Closed Captioning of iTunes movie rentals on iPhone

I rented a movie from iTunes that is closed captioned (Oceans Eleven) and I turned on closed captioning on my iPhone (settings, iPod, closed captioning on). Yet, no closed captions display when I watch the movie on my iPhone. What am I missing? Why are captions not able to be viewed?

OK, it was Oceans Thirteen, not Eleven. But the caption symbol is displayed in iTunes. I tried playing it on my iPhone and my Mac Pro, no dice. Captioning does not work on either system and captioning is turned on in both.

?Where do I find films with Subtitles (Closed Captions) on itunes store

Hi...
Being hard of hearing, I have found that there is a limited choice of films on itunes store with subtitles (closed captions)!!
Can anyone tell me how I find films with subtitles without having to click on every thumb nail and also can Apple explain why not subtitles for all films that are on offer.
Thanks
Fired

On the iTunes Store home page, use the quick links section at the top right and click on Power Search. Then select Movies and check the "search for movies that contain closed captioning".

Movies playing in iTunes will not show closed captions

I have purchased several movies from the iTunes store. They all have Closed Captioning listed in the store description. I need Closed Captioning because I have hearing loss and even with my hearing aids, I cannot hear all the dialogue in movies.
In my iTunes app, I opened Preferences-->Playback and checked the box for "Show closed captioning when available." Then I play the movie in iTunes. No captions. I click on the Controls menu for Audio & Subtitles. It's grayed out.
I go to the .m4v file in Finder and open the movie with Quicktime to see whether I can get captions that way. No captions. I check the View menu for Show Closed Captioning. It's grayed out.
At this point I'm thinking these movies do not really HAVE captions, despite what the store description said. However, this proves to be wrong because I turn on my TV and start up my Apple TV 3. I select "Movies" and then "Purchased" and find these movies. When I play these movies via the Apple TV, they all show up on the TV screen with the captions working perfectly.
So, what gives? I've spent hours searching the internet for a solution, but all I can find is that the selection I've made in iTunes preferences *should* make the captions show up in iTunes. I'm stumped. I want to play the movies on my computer in iTunes (or in Quicktime) so that I don't have to be at my house in front of my TV in order the enjoy them. Is there any way I can make these movies play in iTunes with the captions showing? Can anyone make any suggestions? I'd be very grateful if someone could help me achieve this goal.

I have same problem with my son's iPod Touch running iOS 5.1.1. I set "explicit" to off, but then many songs we purchased on iTunes that are labeled as "clean" do not show up on his iPod Touch. If I set "explicit" to on, they do show up.

I have purchased many movies on iTunes, now they are adding closed captioning or subtitles to those movies, BUT can not reload them so I can view those subtitles. I am mentally disabled and need the subtitles.

Hello, To start off, I have been a member of iTunes for awhile and have been content with them, until now. I am legally disabled due to a head injury that happened when I was a teenager. I am everyday functional, but I do need closed captioning(cc) or subtitles to understand the movie or TV show. I have purchased lots of movies and TV shows from iTunes. As any new business does, iTunes has updated itself and added features for their customers. They figure out what the consumers want and like. I started to realize that iTunes added subtitles for the deaf and disabled, but as I was told by Apple there was nothing I could do about reloading those already purchased movies, to include the cc or subtitles. Since then, I don't use iTunes and it's a real shame because I love electronics and it's technology. I wish Apple would work with the consumer. Why can't I reload the iTunes movies on my PC (Win7) with the subtitles, which they now offer, but didn't when I purchased them? To me, that is wrong to do that to a customer. Now that they are including cc/subtitles , everyone is able to enjoy iTunes and not be excluded. Someone__please explain this to me. Thank you for reading this.

Untill the movie studios agree to allow past downloads of movies outside of the US, you aill always have to have a copy of purchased movies on your computer. If not, you will have to buy them again if you delete them.

In iTunes v12.1.2.27, how do I turn off Closed Captioning on TV shows?

In iTunes v12.1.2.27, how do I turn off Closed Captioning on TV shows?
I have looked at the Preferences/Playback section and I do not have the 'Show Closed Captioning When Available?' box. Instead, I have a Caption droplist with the options 'Default', 'Large Text', and 'Classic' I don't want closed captioning at all.

Have you looked in System Preferences -> Accessibility -> Captions (at least for the Mac).

Closed Caption or Subtitles on Movies in iTunes for AppleTV

I bought an Apple TV Dec 2008 but am waiting for Subtitles or Closed Captions so that I can watch a movie. Does anyone know when they are going to appear? I am nearly deaf. I did rent one that I thought I saw CC on but it turned out it was not. Right now I have to use Netflix while my ATV collects dust. Nice "screen saver" but pretty expensive. Thanks.

I'm disappointed that I can't get the closed caption/subtitles on movies I've rented on iTunes. I'm pretty sure they exist, and if I had the physical DVD I could verify this. Will subtitles be available on Apple TV when they are available on the original? I tried the CC/subtitles on/off and nothing happened.

All sales are final

When you buy a buy at the itunes store do you get access to closed caption on like a DVD

I would like to know if the movies you purchase from the Itunes store allows you to have closed caption. We have purchased a lot of amazon but the closed caption is not an option there and we would love to switch over to Itunes for movies.

Thank you for your reply. It was a game I purchased that is suppose to be compatible with IPOD 5G however it downloaded from the ITUNES store in the "Apps" of ITUNES, but shows that it is a game with the extension.ipa. There is no game tab in ITUNES. How do I get the game tab back in order to sync with my IPOD 5G
