Text streaming across screen

I would like the option of turning on text that streams across my screen.  How do I do that?

What text?  

Are you talking about Closed Caption text?

What DVR/Receiver model number?

Yes, closed caption text. How do I turn it on or off?

Press INFO then right arrow to CC press select then arrow down to the one you want.  CC  puts it in a box it doesn't scroll.

My remote, while it says (input), does not respond. It just goes to programs. To find most settings I hit MENU and then chose settings. Scroll to Display. It does not show CC.

Going that route you should see captioning.

Instead of selecting Display, select Accessibility, then Captioning
