Acorn TV not providing close captioning

Jump to solution

We subscribed to Roku to get the Acorn TV channel to specifically watch the Australian series "McLeod's Daughters". Close captions were fine for seasons 1-3. Beginning with season 4 there are no captions. Some portions of the "Aussie speak" are unintelligible and we need the close captions. Any suggestions?

Contact Acorn TV and ask them why not all episodes have CC. It's nothing in the Roku that is stopping it, as shown by some episodes having captions and others not.
