The new lineup of iPod devices announced yesterday also includes the closed-captioning capability, and offers the ability to turn captions on or off within the “Video” settings. It is unknown at this point when firmware updates may be available to add this capabilities to existing devices like the Apple TV or iPhone.

I thought that’s GREAT! I would like to get iPod Touch next year when price cut, and more gig and more tv shows and movies available with CC.
First, I would like to said how glad I have hear about Apple introduce new iPod line called “iPod Touch” which have 3.5″ display, that ought be good viewable for anything include subtitle. I thought that device look so sexy and awesome, but no camera. That’s okay. I have my own digital camera. It’s always better than cell phone or PDA with camera. Right? Anyway….
Someone mention about iTunes 7.4 update that have Closed Caption features since QuickTime 7.2 update. I rush and update to check out lately update. It looks like they have make quite small step. It had been a year. Take a good look on some sample I took on screenshot.
Actually, that information is little mislead how to turn CC on.
See what I show you which is an error? However, it prove that there is CC feature.

So far, I have playing around on iTunes to find out through store if there any CC or subtitle support like seen on DVD cases’ back for information. Sadly to information, there is NONE even mention. That mean, it’s up to studios that should put CC or not. I wait for them doing that… Maybe we have to bully around with several studio to encourage some bandwidth to turn on/off for us, deaf to watch in portable instead big fat laptop.
For some previous, I have wrote about iTunes/iPod with CC in past…

*** UPDATE ***
There are two video that said Closed Captioning. I download to test to play. It doesn’t appear anything on computer. That’s disappointment. And I wish it’s TV or movie, not music video. Ugh. I felt so dirty.
