Why doesnt closed caption work with hdmi cables?

Anything i can do?Why doesnt closed caption work with hdmi cables?
If you are using a motorola cable box with hdmi cables....the caption will work..its the biggest complaint i get. Its for the 5100 series box but its the same for all motorola cable/dvr/hd boxes. On-Screen Display


The DCT5100 delivers high-quality component video for high definition TVs.


You can use the on-screen display menu to configure your high definition


settings for video display format, closed captioning, and the width-to-height


ratio of your screen.


To access your high definition settings, press the MENU key on the front


panel while the DCT5100 is turned off. If your TV is on, the on-screen


display menu appears listing the settings you can configure. The user settings


will also be displayed on the front panel LED whether your TV is off or on.


However, only the options for Output Type and Closed Caption will be


displayed on the LED.


Use your remote control or the cursor keys on the front panel to navigate


the on-screen display. Press the and keys to highlight the setting you


wish to change. Press the key to select an option for that setting. To exit


the setting and move to another setting, use the directional keys.





make sure the cc is off on the tv.Why doesnt closed caption work with hdmi cables?
Closed caption is controlled by the DVD or Blu Ray through the HDMI.
CC should work, but it is controlled by the set-top box (not the TV)
