I have a Hauppauge HVR-1950 and use it with GBPVR. When I play back a DVD with video from the HVR-1950, the closed captions appear only on the TV. When I play the same DVD in Windows Media Player or a similar program, the captions don't appear, and there isn't even an option for captions. Any solutions? Thanks.

Media Player Classic should be able to show CC from a DVD.

Windows Media Player shows closed captions from DVDs, just not the ones created with video from the HVR-1950. It's odd, though, that the closed captions do appear on my TV when watching DVDs created with video from the HVR-1950. Any ideas, guys?

I solved the problem. Here's how. I went into Media Player under tools, options, security, and put a checkmark beside "Show local captions when present." The odd thing is, though, I still need to put a store-bought DVD movie with captions in the computer first, choose closed captions from Media Player's lyrics, captions, and subtitles menu, then remove it and put in the DVD I created with video from the HVR-1950. If I don't, the captions won't appear.

So, quite a few steps, but at least the problem is solved.

It may have to do with how the DVD was authored. There are DVD authoring programs that officially support CC. I forget which ones though.
