DVB-T Module-- re subtitles.
As a family member is hard of hearing,the display of subtitles on DVB-T (Freeview) transmissions is important. Yesterday,at my local dealers,we discovered that neither the BV9,nor the Beosystem 3,on their existing (not the latest) software are able to display subtitles on DVB-T transmissions. Details of the latest software version do not mention a subtitle display fix. The dealer has arranged for an update to be applied to see if this fixes the problem,and has also e-mailed B & O for their advices. Terry.

Re: DVB-T Module-- re subtitles.
Hi Whittlesea, I'm not sure of your question, but I have tried the subtitles using the DVB-T module in a BS3 and it truncates the top lines (at least one-and-a-half; may be two-and-a-half lines). Have you come across this 'feature'? Mike

Re: DVB-T Module-- re subtitles.
Terry, Even on the very early version of software, sub-titles worked correctly. However if you look in your options under Language you may find both set to NONE, this will turns sub-titles OFF, you need to set both sub-title sets to English or the language you want, either way this has the effect of turning sub-titles back on again.

Re: DVB-T Module-- re subtitles.
Keith, thanks for you advices. My initial post was based on my demo in April of my dealer's BV9. He subsequently advised me that there was a problem with his TV,particularly with recording subtitles,which was subsequently corrected by a software update. Regards, Terry.

Re: DVB-T Module-- re subtitles.
Hi Peter, I'm now using v3.1 of the software, and the subtitles work OK except for the top one-and-a-half lines when displaying subtitles (closed captions) at the top of the screen (because there's news titles or whatever at the bottom). I also have semi-transparent 'blocks' left on screen when the subtitles change from lower to higher lines on the screen. Have you come across this problem? Mike

Re: DVB-T Module-- re subtitles.
Mike, Are you sure you are using DVB/T-S version 3.1 because the latest version for DVB/T-S is 1.5 and 1.7 on the DVB/T ?

Re: DVB-T Module-- re subtitles.
Keith, thanks for asking. You are quite right, the software is now 1.50a on the DVB/T-S, with 3.10a as the general processor upgrade version. I understand Struer are looking into this, but wondered if anyone else has found the issue and/or a workaround. Kind regards, Mike

Re: DVB-T Module-- re subtitles.
Keith, I have finally got word back from our local B&O store. They said the issue had at last been fixed (in Germany?), and that a software upgrade will now fix my truncation problem. Just have to wait for Service to contact me now ... BTW Happy New Year!!!!

Re: DVB-T Module-- re subtitles.
Mike, A Happy New Year to you and the very best for 2008. I look forward to reviewing this apparent fix, but frankly I am very surprised if this was fixed in Germany, but we will see.
