The tv turns on fine but then pops up a black box in the middle of the screen covering most of the picture. They don't have the original remote or the owners manual. I can get in the menu and make changes via the front panel. I see a closed caption line in the display and when you get into that section you only have a choice to change the CC1,2,3,4, and the Text1,2,3,4 but I don' t see a closed caption on/off. Is it only disabled by remote? Doesn't make sense but its the only thing I can think of. If there is a strange way to turn these off please let me know.
