    I was helping my mother setup one of these. Had to run back to the lobby several times and eventually get a manager to activate a working device. Missed the first 5-10 minutes of the movie doing it. Really need to iron out all the kinks.

    I was going to book a "CC" session at my local major movie chain to see Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings. I wanted to know more about the "CC" so when I found their FAQ page I saw that they use this system. My wife and I are not even deaf but we both like captions as it means we don't miss anything.
    This is an absolutely stupid outcome in what looks to be a system from the 1990's. Why can't the cinema just have the "CC" session having open captions on the screen? Out of like 10 sessions for the day only two were CC, so it doesn't even make sense when they could have this used this Captiview system in every session. 🤦‍♂️
    We will not be going to see the movie in this case and will just wait until it's released with subtitles to watch at home.
    Thank you for your video though, great information.

    There's got to be a better way to view a subtitled film without disturbing deaf people.

    The "receiver" box is by the projector, not many people use captiview and the receiver will turn off or freeze. It use to happen to my gf and I all the time at this one theatre. When you go just ask for a manager, and for them to turn the receiver by the projector off/on. Hope that helps

    We are foreigners; I'm fluent in English, so it's OK for me, but my wife and son need the subtitles on screen for a better understanding...
    Wouldn't it be better if subtitles could be always on screen?
    The effort of AMC's CaptiView is great, but not very smooth to use...

      I just saw the listing for the first movie at my local AMC which will show captions on screen (The Northman). The movie is listed under the premium showings drop-down menu as "open captions".

    A very 20th century machine. It reminds me the CRT screen. It must be a better way!

    Why cant movies just put onscreen subtitles instead of this bullcrap device which creates problems? Honestly if I could, I feel like breaking the thing in half. It looks so ugly.

    This seems like a really convoluted and underwhelming piece of tech. We've got smartphones - why don't cinemas release an app that syncs with the movie (by detecting audio signals that every movie has embedded in them to prevent piracy, which could also be used for such a technology as well), and all you need to do is to pair your smartphone with the cinema's wireless system/read an RFD chip that transmits subtitles to your smartphone app? The app would have a black background, with yellow text for maximum legibility, and wouldn't be obtrusive to other movie goers.
    Addendum, I'm not deaf, but I feel that people who are, and are hard of hearing, are getting a raw deal here. Thanks for the video!
