Apple TV/Video System: Closed Captioning Not Appearing (3/96)

I have a videotape that includes closed captioning information that I wish to view with Apple Video Player. I've turned on closed captioning using the appropriate Apple Video Player "Controls" window. Also, the video window is not set to the smallest size, which I know keeps the closed captioning text from appearing, but I'm still not seeing the closed captioning.

In order to decode closed captioning information, the incoming video must be passed through the TV Tuner module. If the video cable is attached to the RCA jack of the Apple Video-In Card, closed captioning information will be ignored. Instead, use a standard F-type coaxial cable to attach the VCR to the TV Tuner module.
