This addon does not find closed captions in mpeg-2 streams from ATSC live TV in USA. Why?

Try,
Settings>Player>Language>Enable parsing for closed captions (True)
Of course subtitle must be enabled.

That said Kodi's support of ASTC closed captions kind of sucks; I have recordings of shows where the closed captions play just fine if viewed in VLC but for whatever reason Kodi acts like they aren't there.
