Foyles War Season 7 closed captioning

I also find several programs (not live channels) out of sync between captions and voices.

The most annoying is sometimes in the Roku channel itself, when the captions are from an entirely DIFFERENT program. It is very obvious it is not related to the program being watched. I was tempted each time to make a list of these... I guess now --based on the reply to several viewers --I need to name the programs and go online and make specific reports.

Re: Foyles War Season 7 closed captioning

Over time I learned that (a) whenever closed captions (CC) are missing, and (b) when CC are out of sync, I go to Settings > Update software and Restart.  Usually, this brings CC to the program we are viewing.  But it does not remedy the CC that are either way-too-soon or delayed.

As I stated, I have not kept track of a couple programs where the CC was clearly from a different program or movie.  The next time that happens, I will make a note, also whenever the CC is out of sync. Then, I'll notify asap.  Thanks.
