Our system for captioning only works now if we remove the textColor attribute. Why?

Question

We typically include the header elements as follows:
{QTtext}{timescale:100}{size:16}{font:Arial}{justify:left}{backColor:0,0,0}{text Color:65535,65535,65535}
{width:480}{height:100}
[00:00:00]Music.
But recently, we found we have to remove "{textColor:65535,65535,65535}" to be able to see the text. No big deal, except the text now appears justified center.
What changed?

Here's the catch.  The line that is using the "Smartphones Talk Free" promo has to have a data package attached to it, which means that you would wind up in this situation:
Your Number (Line 1) - Calling Plan + Data Package
His Number (Line 2) - $9.99 + Data Package
New Number (Line 3) - $0 + Data package (as long as the data package is kept on the line)
You'd have to have 3 data packages, one to keep the promo, and then one on the lines with the smartphones active.  Contracts and promotions are tied to the phone number, so you can't switch the number or contract end date between lines.  If your husband wants to keep his number, the best thing to do will be to wait until he is eligible for an upgrade.
If there is not a smartphone on line 2, but just a standard phone as was stated by the OP, you do not have to have a data plan on this line. To qualify for the smartphones talk free promotion, you do not have to have a data plan on all lines, just the lines you sign up with the offer for, i.e. just the primary line that is upgrading to the smartphone and the additional line that you are adding so that you can take advantage of the offer.
If you do want to take advantage of the smartphone talk free offer, though, you will have to leave the smartphone on the line you sign up with. If you move the phone to your 2nd line, I believe that the discount will be stopped.
