missing sections of close captions and I've tried all the fixes.

On ALL stations - networks and premiums, about half the closed captions are missing. Has gone for years. DirecTV wants me to pay $400 for an upgraded Genie which is ridiculous. No wonder so many people are going to streaming services where it is not a problem. Does anyone have a 'fix' that will correct the problem? I think it's a problem with the 'Genie 1 Box' but it's been changed once and the problem has corrected. After 25 years I'm about the discontinue my account.

Sorry, I meant to say in the posting the problem was NOT CORRECTED when the previous receiver was swapped for our current one which still has missing captions on all channels.

DTV receivers automatically update the software when needed.
