closed captioning not working on the HD Genie receiver

Have checked all the settings on both the receiver and the TV - CC works only in a sporadic manner on the HD TV receiver but works fine on the client receiver in the other room.

Have you done a red button reset?

not yet, thanks for suggestion.  as a follow-up, we see slightly better CC performance (e.g. on some shows or channels) using the directv subtitles, but even then CC only displays every other line of dialogue.  Will re-start and report.  Thanks!

This problem has been around for ever, it comes and goes but has never really been fixed.
