Although I can't claim to having seen every possible way to option subtitles on a TV, I have a lot of doubt that "switching a red a yellow cord" makes any sense. If it does, I stand corrected but would be interested in the details. Otherwise, here's the reality of Spanish subtitles: you can...

If it's totally dead--no sign of life at all when you try to turn it on with the on/off button on the cabinet--that's fairly easy to fix but it requires electronic repair skills that are beyond the average set owner. Any professional repair would cost you far more than the set is worth. A TV...

"Bobbie" obviously has never had this experience. Her answer, to put it gently, is not likely to succeed. If your TV is a plasma set, you *might* be able to recover from this error. If it's an LCD (including LED versions), the display is almost certainly ruined. Replacing the display is a...

Satellite is only physically possible in North America or Europe if you have a clear view of the sky to the south, at some angle above the horizon. So if that doesn't describe your apartment, satellite is out of the question. Of course, the rules of the building owner come first, even if you...

The coupon program in the U.S. is expired. Check stores and on-line vendors for bargain prices on the converters; the simple digital-to-analog models are not expensive. Of that type, they all pretty much work the same, with one exception: analog pass-through. While that's not important in the...

On some TVs, the number of times the power light blinks during a failure is a coded indicator of the nature of the trouble. Check the troubleshooting section of your owner's guide for a list of "blinking light" codes, or you might find them with an on-line search. What's happening in general...

Do you get the black screen with different inputs? Cable or satellite box, over-the-air antenna, DVD player, game box? If it's only one of those, that's where the problem is. If it's with everything, then you have an interesting problem. Your video circuits are mostly intact if you get the...

With the limited specifications you've supplied, the two sets are essentially identical. It would come down to which set has the better price, which store has the better return policy, and which TV has the better warranty. ------------- Followup: it appears your question comes from Australia...

No. Samsung 3D TVs are in their 7000, 8000, and 9000 series sets.

CC is usually found in the audio sub-menu of your setup menu. Check the owner's guide for your TV; the instruction for CC should be in there somewhere. CC might also be a function of your cable or satellite box, if you have one. Again, check its menu and user guide.

The reference below says the display is 1024 x 768, so it's not full HD. 720p at best.
