MLB TV Closed Caption, Apple TV

I found the way to turn closed caption on/off during a game on MLB TV was to press the Pause button and the icon will appear at the bottom left of the screen. Click on it to turn cc off or on.

I had to call MLB support to find this out. None of comments from the community or others on the Internet mentioned this simple fix.

Closed Captioning / SDH won’t turn off after app update Hi, I turned my LG TV on today and Apple TV app asked me a couple questions about something then went away, presume it had done an update as now when I try to watch any programme, they all have what looks like subtitles at the bottom. I have gone in and turned those off however the ‘Closed Captions & SDH’ is stuck at ON and greyed out - it shows ‘to disable closed captioning, change the setting on your device’ I don’t seem to have closed captioning setting on my tv, only subtitles which are turned off in the tv settings Thoroughly stumped! And fed up tbh as it’s now taken an hour of precious sofá time after a long work day and the text on the screen is irritating Any ideas please ? Thank you

Whats the point of the Apple TV pause button Watching sports or anything is frustrating if you like to pause the stream to go back and read the screen. On pause the ATV dims the screen so you can’t see then it pastes a giant program banner over 1/3 of the screen. Unreadable.

CC on that app is a fiasco.
