Closed caption for apple tv

It would be nice if I could get the closed captioning to work while watching a movie through the apple tv. Since there are a great number of us that are deaf or hard of hearing. Any suggestions on how to get that feature to work or hope Apple can come up with something to make it work , that would be nice.

content that have closed captions included already work on the appletv, and the appletv shows the subtitles.

  • No closed captioning on apple tv

    I bought a tv series (The River) in itunes store with closed caption and the cc works fine on my imac but not on my Apple tv. Closed captioning is turned active on both computer and apple tv. What is wrong? I really need it

    Hey jespersthlm
    I would restore the Apple TV and then turn the settings on again to ensure that everything is checked for closed captioning.

  • Closed Captioning in Apple TV Rented Movies?

    Is it possible to select closed captioning in Apple TV Rented Movies? I rented a movie and did not see the closed caption option. Is it possible that only certain movies have the closed captioning option, or none.
    I would appreciate any information regarding this subject.

    You can turn on closed captioning in the AppleTV settings. Go to Settings > Video.
    It is possible that not all rented movies will have closed captions. It is up to the movie studio to provide CC with the movies files they give to Apple for hosting.

  • How do you export a working closed caption for Premiere Pro CC 2014 in .mpg format?

    We do weekly 1/2 hour programs that require closed captioning for air. I need to know how to export a self contained .mpg format without using MacCaption. If not possible, is there another, less expensive, 3rd party program that I can use? Or better yet, is Adobe going to create one for us?

    Look for the wrench icon in the monitors, above the playback area, to the right. Tooltip for it is "Settings..." -- the menu item is in the flag menu there: Closed Captioning Display...

  • Apple TV 2 - Can it display closed captions for the hearing impaired?

    I have not seen a direct answer to this question anywhere, even on the web. If I buy a movie/TV show DVD, I get closed captions. If I rent or buy from iTunes or some other source, does this mean there are no closed captions to display, or does it mean that Apple TV 2 cannot display the closed captions? It is especially helpful with British shows. We use closed captions all the time for everything else. If it cannot be displayed, Apple TV 2 is largely useless for us. Note: many Boomers (we with the money to spend, not the 15 year olds!) have damaged hearing- they should be included in marketing.

    The easiest way to find videos with closed captioning is to select Column Browser->Show Column Browser from the View menu in iTunes. Select a category and then look for titles displaying the CC icon. You can then rent them in iTunes or find them in the Menu in the ATV and rent them there.

  • Closed captioning for video no longer works for iPhone 4 since iOS 5.0 update. Is there a fix for this?

    Closed captioning while video-playing is one of the coolest features of iOS devices. But for my iPhone (and an iPad user elsewhere from the Net), ever since I updated to iOS 5, the closed captioning icon no longer appear amongst the list of icons when you play a video WITH a closed caption capability.
    I have played videos with closed captions before prior to iOS updates and been having no problems till I tried with iOS 5.
    I tried turning the setting on/off in the Videos Settings, tried deleting and re-adding the video to the phone and also rebooted the phone.
    Hoped someone could find a fix for this. The community can try it on iOS 5 and see if it is also an issue for them since I haven't seen but rarely people having this issue i'm having.

    My son has a similar problem since updating to the latest software on his iphone 4. He can make calls but the other person can't hear him. Facetime and Skype work fine - so it must be the lower microphone that is the problem. He's had it checked at the Apple store in Chiang Mai but they won't fix it - he has to get it back to the UK for service. It's 2 months over the warranty period but having checked around it seems this problem is widespread and Apple need to sort it fast!
    I've updated mine and it's fine - but I'm gonna take out applecare before the warranty runs out as I'm not risking having a £495 phone that I can't use as a phone.
    I was thinking of buying one for my wife this Xmas but no way whilst they are having so many problems.
    COME ON APPLE - GET THIS FIXED WITH A NEW RELEASE ASAP!

  • Closed captioning in Apple TV version 4.4

    I updated the Apple TV software to v4.4 but I still can't get closed captioning to work. The cc menu does not show up after pressing the up arrow button and holding down the select button (only the chapter list). Closed captioning is enabled in the settings menu and the movies I rented all feature a cc option. Very disappointing. I will think twice before renting any other movie.

    You can turn on closed captioning in the AppleTV settings. Go to Settings > Video.
    It is possible that not all rented movies will have closed captions. It is up to the movie studio to provide CC with the movies files they give to Apple for hosting.

  • Closed Captioning for TV shows and more movies

    I too hope that Apple will add closed captioning to more movies and TV shows.  Especially for all it's customers who have been blasting songs into their ears from their ipods.  The hearing impared population is growing!

  • What is the best solution for using closed caption for music

    Hi
    I have been playing around with closed caption and used Windows Media Player and smi.
    But now I wanted to do a try with flash and since I'm not a regular flash user I tried to use.
    Sound object, Xml, textbox and a timer, and it worked okay in email and local testing.
    But when I tried it on a server (site) it only worked if the xml file was stored on the same site.
    What I have today is a asp.net page that generate the xml file and I want to be able to load this xml into flash used on other domains

    Thank you both! I didn't realize Apple offered a USB modem to use with dial-up. That's what I'll suggest to her, since it's only $49.
    I did read a handful of unfavorable reviews for the modem on its Apple Store page (http://store.apple.com/1-800-MY-APPLE/WebObjects/AppleStore.woa/wa/RSLID?mco=B1B 86210&fnode=home/shopmac/macaccessories/networking&nplm=MA034Z/A) -- people having trouble getting all 56k out of it, along with having problems with AOL and various ISPs. Any knowledge of this and whether it's widespread or likely isolated to a few incidents? She is not at all computer savvy, and I just want her to have a beautiful, seamless, and stress-free switch from Windoze to Mac like I did.
    Thanks again!

  • Closed captioning for iTunes

    Does anyone know what's the best way to attached a closed captioning file to a Quicktime mp4 video for iTunes? What format of closed captioning did you use?

    This is something I can't help you with, and is a bit outside the usual subject matter of this forum. A quick look in the Search result suggests that you may get answers in the Final Cut Studio forum.

  • Closed Captioning for Purchased TV Shows

    No captioning is available on any shows as of yet.

  • Closed captioning for rtmp streaming video

    hi, is it possible to do closed captioning in  adobe captivate 5.5 if the video is set to rtmp? any reply would be helpful. thanks!

    What is the subject matter of these FLVs? 
    If it's Captivate screen captures, then you could have added the CC text to each slide if you had left them as FMV slides.
    However, if the video content is of other things, e.g. people talking or some type of action captured with a video camera, then I believe your best solution would be to add the Closed Captioning in whatever tool you used to edit and publish the video. 
    As I mentioned before, Captivate doesn't really provide a mechanism for adding CC text to on screen objects that contain audio in any form.  So for example, you cannot add CC text to an SWF that you've inserted as an animation, even though you can record and add audio to that SWF in Captivate.  Videos are in a similar position, except that they usually don't have their audio added in Captivate.  They mostly come with their audio track built in.  This means the only real way to guarantee good synchronisation of the CC text is to have it embedded in the video as well.

    The application you are using for watch the video will have to write that functionality into their application and the videos itself needs to support closed captioning.
