No. This records from the off-air tuner that is built inside and your Netflix/VUDU. The box includes capability to stream Netflix and VUDU live. Of course, everything on Netflix and VUDU is "on-demand", so you probably don't need to record it for later viewing...

I am not sure, i don't use the Amazon app. The Netflix app does have closed captions.

I have no problems with the Netflix app. I use it more often than any other app on the MemoPad HD. I also always use headphones and not the speakers. Does using headphones work?

It will work with Netflix. When a tablet freezes during video streaming it is because the processor or the wi-fi is unable to handle that amount of data. This unit will work fine.

I usually have my volume control set between 10 [night]-15 [day]. I tried pushing the volume up as high as it would go, but I couldn't stand it any higher than 20. The little volume bar looked like it would go up to 100. As far as closed captioning goes, it works fine on TV. It doesn't seem to work for me on Amazon Prime movies or TV unless they are foreign movies. I was watching the Damages series and couldn't get any captions, for instance.

The US Government requires that all streaming applications be able to support Closed Captioning in 2014 TVs. The Amazon Streaming Video app for Vizio did NOT support Closed Captioning in the 2013 version, so the app has to be reworked by Amazon to support Closed Captioning. Amazon was late to the party with Closed Captioning on their service, but to their credit, they are able to support it now on most of their movie choices on Roku. Since Vizio sells a lot of TVs now, I would expect this to be ready before June 2014, but I have no knowledge of that. Please note, however, that this is an AMAZON issue... NOT a Vizio issue. Coming from a long-time Amazon Prime customer, who complained about no Closed Captioning for quite some time.

As long as the Closed Captioning mode on the TV has already been activated, yes. Closed Captioning really is more of a function of the TV than the remote.

Works great for Netflix. Locks up on YouTube but I'm not sure if it's me or the player. I have not used it for bluray yet.

Roku box is capable of handing close captions. Netflix should start streaming captions on some of their library sometime in 2010. I checked this issue out with both Roku and Netflix when I got the box.

Sony BDPS790 Blu-Ray Player not honoring External subtitle and closed caption for all video streams. It supports External Subtitile only for AVI video format. Sony support keeps big silence for this kind of queries.

Under "General Setup Page" menu setting using the SETUP button to get the setup menu. "Closed captions...closed captions are data that are hidden in the video signal of some discs. Before you select this function, please ensure that the disc contains closed caption information and your TV set also has this function." Directly from enclosed user's manual.

Yes, the captions can be turned off if the user is not hard of hearing. The captioning service is actually a free service provided by the FCC so there is no fee to pay for the phone though you will need high speed internet access. The phone does have caller id provided you have purchased caller id service from your telephone provider.

Captioning is displayed on streamed material if captions are available on the received media.

If the channel provider has subtitles, then it's an option with the Roku 2. When I click on a title in Netflix I now have an extra option of "Audio/Subtitles" where I can turn them on & off.
