Comment(by jdeslip at berkeley.edu):

 I have a bit of an update on the CC captions which work only on the joint
 backend/frontend machine and not on the remote frontends.

 I have actually discovered that it works on some of the channels but not
 others on the frontend.  I live in the Bay Area, and one of the local
 stations has a 4-1 and 4-2 channel.  Both are digital, but 4-1 looks like
 the old low res analogue and 4-2 is in HD.  Captions correctly work on 4-1
 on all my machines, but they only work on 4-2 on the joint
 backend/frontend.  For 4-2, the captions say they are turned on but
 nothing displays on my two laptops acting as frontends.  They don't work
 on ABC/FOX on my frontend laptops, but they do work on PBS (which is HD).

 Does this give anyone an idea of what is wrong?  I'd like to get it
 working for all channels.  Sorry for not making this discovery sooner.
