Does anyone know where to buy televisions with Closed Captioning in Prague, or what they refer to it as here. I ve been looking around but I haven't seen it advertised, and I ve found out that Teletext is something else completely. Somebody told me it opeartes on some sort of box you hook up to the tv, anyone know if this is true, and if so where I could purchase one?
Thank you

Czech TV broadcasts it, as of 2002. You can probably contact them directly to see about buying or renting a machine. You could also check out this page: http://jc.ff.cuni.cz/mmp/deaf/E_deaf.htm from Charles University. Maybe one of the faculty members can help you out.


"Czech Television has been transmitting stereo signals to all TV transmitters in the Czech Republic since 1997. Despite exerting systematic pressure on the transmitter operators, notably Czech Radio Communications, we have not yet managed to provide 100% stereophonic terrestrial analogue sound broadcasting. This problem will probably be resolved with the introduction of terrestrial digital broadcasting. The CT1 and CT2 signals are complemented by additional services – Teletext, closed captioning and the VPS code for controlling VHS home video recorders."
