This is not complicated at all. CAPT 1 is simply the closed caption in the language of the program and it means you’ll be getting a transcription of what is being said. On the other hand, choosing “CAPT 2” will show you if closed captioning is available in another language. Not all programs have CAPT 2 though, if they do, it will most likely be in Spanish or the United States.
