If you refer to the CC indicator in the frontend, that information comes
from the database, which in turn gets it from the tv listings source you
are using.

For recordings made with ivtv cards: If you use mythtranscode to, say, cut
out the commercials, the vbi stream containing the closed captions does
not 'survive' the transcoding process.
