Closed Captioned Movies?

I bought a movie called "Meet the Robinsons" on iTunes Music Store. How do I access the closed caption for the movie? I am hard of hearing so I do not catch everything that the person would say in the movie.

only certain movies have captioning available, unfortunatly that is not one of them.
check out this thread for the full discussion and a list of films that are captioned.

  • Why are closed caption movies being pulled from iTunes?

    As of today there is only one movie left in all of iTunes that is Closed Captioned. This is a real problem for those in the deaf community that have purchased iPods & iPhones, or even just those who use iTunes on Macs & PCs.
    While Apple may not be fully liable, I am sure it is against the spirit of the ADA, and definitely not consumer friendly.
    There is a small argument for blaming the movie studios for not providing CC content. Apple should be proactive in requesting movies be CC.
    What is the reason for pulling existing movies that were CC and replacing them with non-CC versions?

    If the CC movies are coming back, how does that work with those of use who purchased non-CC movies? I see 145 movies, not too many of which I want to see.
    I love the Harry Potter movies, but I have a harder and harder time understanding them. My deafness is such that not only do I find it difficult to understand what's being spoken if there's a lot of ambient noise, but I also have a lot of difficulty with foreign accents (my being USian). My hearing is bad enough to qualify me for a TTY phone! The sound quality (even if the settings are the same in iTunes) is uneven across the movies, and all I want to do is watch the movie and understand what's being said!
    If I can't get the closed captioning with the movies and TV shows on iTunes, I'll just have to purchase or rent from Blockbuster and the like.
    It boggles my mind that iTunes has overlooked this issue. I guess you get what you pay for.

  • Purchased any closed-caption movie/video?

    Have you purchased a video or movie that has closed-captions?
    7.4 should support material that has it and I am interested to find out what movie or video has them to purchase one and use it as a sample to add captions for my videos (podcast) that are distributed through iTunes.
    You can activate this function at the View menu item:
    View/Show Closed Captions

    I just purchased an episode of "Bones" since someone just told me iTunes supports closed captions. On TV, the programs are all captioned, but I can't get captions up on either iTunes or QuickTime (yes, I followed all instructions and I have the most recent software updates). Only Quicktime Pro has "show movie properties" and I don't want to pay for Pro just to find out if it's captioned or not.
    Did a search on the iTunes store for "closed captions" and "closed captioned" nothing came up. I don't see any CC symbol anywhere, and don't want to spend hours searching for things that are captioned. I want that to be a search feature... look for products that are captioned only (no hearies here).
    Guess I'm not going to be watching (or buying) any more stuff from iTunes until they work this out.

  • Closed Caption movies?

    How do I know if this movie have it or not?  Also possible of having a category consist with Closed Captions only?
    I dont have time to search all through the movies to check if it is closed captioned or not.  Also I dont want to spend 4.99 per movie and find out that I cant understand and enjoy this movie.
    Thanks

    For each movie in the iTunes Store, the Close Caption information (if any) is shown at the left, stating the language in which the captions are written.  If present, it is identified with the "CC" logo.
    If there no CC, then it is not Close Captioned.

  • Importing Closed Caption .scc file into Premiere Pro CS6.  Closed Captioning is enabled but cannot see the Captions tab.  Also get error message when importing to bin.

    I am using Adobe Premiere Pro CS6.  My aim is to export an mpeg file with closed captioning embeded for network television.  I have watched numbers adobe videos and have spent countless hours researching this.  I am able to generate about 29 different types of Closed Caption files using MovieCaptioner- including .scc (which Adobe says they prefer).  When I try to "Import" the file I get an incompatible error message.  The same happens with all other cc file types when I try to import them.  Second, I tried attaching the .scc as an attachment in the sequence menu.  They show up in the preview window, but do no encode into the mpeg file.  I am aware of this form:  Re: How do I export closed-captioned movies from Premiere CS6?
    Third- I have watched some adobe video for created the CC files within Premiere. http://tv.adobe.com/watch/learn-premiere-pro-cc/create-closed-captions-within-premiere-pro /
    However, I cannot find the "Caption" menu to do so?  Where is it?
    Am I running into problems because I am not on the Creative Cloud?  IF so, is it possible to upgrade and how do i do that.  Adobe has made it incredibly difficult to contact anybody.

    Sorry, you cannot do this in Premiere Pro CS6. Only QuickTime files can be exported with embedded closed captioning and this must be done in Premiere Pro CC or later. All other formats must use a sidecar file.

    You can only attach a closed caption file in Premiere Pro CS6, no encoding is available for closed caption files (embedded or sidecar).

    Caption is a tab is in the Export Settings dialog box if you want to export with closed captions. This tab is available in Premiere Pro CC and later.

    In Creative Cloud, you would still have trouble encoding a MPEG 2 file with embedded captions as it is a QuickTime only feature. There might be a plug-in available, but I'm not aware of it.

  • Embedded closed captions not viewable

    I have read most of the threads on embedded closed captions in this forum and after experiencing similar problems I have come to the conclusion that embedding captions in QT .mov files is not properly implemented. I could be wrong. I hope someone can show that is the case.
    Steps taken:
    1) created a closed caption track in a 2:40 minute Video as the top level video track (V4 in my case) using the CEA 608 CC1 caption stream. Captions show up in the program window properly enabled.
    2) Exported the entire clip directly from Premier Pro CC 2014  as a Quicktime .mov file with captions "embedded in Output file" (also tried exporting through Media Encoder--same results noted below).
    Closed captions DO NOT show up in the resulting .mov file when played in Quicktime Player 10.3 on a Mac running OSX 10.9.5, even with subtitles set to "automatic"
    Closed captions DO NOT show up in VLC Media Player 2.1.5 or 2.0.5.
    Closed captions DO NOT show up when the .mov file is imported into an iPad Air running IOS 10.1.1 and played in Safari. This is my target destination and is critical.
    Closed captions DO show up when the mov file is re-imported into Premier Pro and that clip is active in the preview window.
    Closed captions DO show up when the .mov file is played on Quicktime Player 7 when "Show closed captioning" is active in the "View" menu. Quicktime Player 7 reveals that a "Closed Captions" video track exists as track #3 in the mov file under "Movie Properties".
    I have uploaded the .mov file discussed above and made it available for public download if anyone can help me figure out how to get closed captioning to work. It is intended to be played on an iPad from a Self-Guided Tour app under development, which will play it using the native IOS video player when the file thumbnail is clicked. If the IOS Video Player is the same as QT Player 10.3 on a Mac, it defaults to "subtitles automatic". I don't know for certain,however.
    Please note that this file, while a draft version, is the property of the California Automobile Museum which reserves all rights to its use including reposting, copying or modifying.

    Thanks for the posting on the forums here. I downloaded your file and I looked at it in the following places:
    GENERAL PLAYBACK MAC
    10.8.5 (12F45)
    with QuickTime 10.3
    I could see the closed captioning in the player.
    with PPRO CC 2014
    Closed captioning intact and viewable in the app
    10.9 (13A603)
    with QuickTime 10.3 (727.1)
    I could see the closed captioning in the player -- had to set it under View-> Subtitles-> English CC
    with PPRO CC 2014
    Closed captioning intact and viewable in the app
    10.9 updated to 10.9.5 (13F34)
    with QuickTime 10.3 (727.4)
    Closed captions are not being displayed, under any setting (choice is Off or AUTO) -- appears to be an update problem.
    This is not just a failure of PPRO embedded closed caption MOVs, but also embedded MOVs from other closed caption authoring solutions like Telestream, and Annotation Edit.
    I can log a bug on my side, but the problem is not in PPRO -- I'd check with Apple on this.
    with PPRO CC 2014
    Closed captioning intact and viewable in the app
    VLC MEDIA PLAYER
    It appears from my quick testing with VLC Media Player --  VLC Media Player is not detecting embedded closed captions in files from PPRO, nor from other industry standard closed caption authoring solutions, like from Telesteam, they make MacCaption and Caption Maker. I also checked embedded files from Annotation Edit, another widely used caption authoring solution, and VLC Media Player does not detect embedded closed captioning in those files, either.
    I encourage you to look on the side of VLC Media Player for the failure to display closed captions.
    IPAD AIR PLAYBACK
    In my testing, I did not test this equipment configuration. If you think you have a problem, please consider logging a bug.
    Thanks again for posting here, I hope I answered your questions! If not, let me know, and I'll reply again.

  • Movies playing in iTunes will not show closed captions

    I have purchased several movies from the iTunes store. They all have Closed Captioning listed in the store description. I need Closed Captioning because I have hearing loss and even with my hearing aids, I cannot hear all the dialogue in movies.
    In my iTunes app, I opened Preferences-->Playback and checked the box for "Show closed captioning when available." Then I play the movie in iTunes. No captions. I click on the Controls menu for Audio & Subtitles. It's grayed out.
    I go to the .m4v file in Finder and open the movie with Quicktime to see whether I can get captions that way. No captions. I check the View menu for Show Closed Captioning. It's grayed out.
    At this point I'm thinking these movies do not really HAVE captions, despite what the store description said. However, this proves to be wrong because I turn on my TV and start up my Apple TV 3. I select "Movies" and then "Purchased" and find these movies. When I play these movies via the Apple TV, they all show up on the TV screen with the captions working perfectly.
    So, what gives? I've spent hours searching the internet for a solution, but all I can find is that the selection I've made in iTunes preferences *should* make the captions show up in iTunes. I'm stumped. I want to play the movies on my computer in iTunes (or in Quicktime) so that I don't have to be at my house in front of my TV in order the enjoy them. Is there any way I can make these movies play in iTunes with the captions showing? Can anyone make any suggestions? I'd be very grateful if someone could help me achieve this goal.

    I have same problem with my son's iPod Touch running iOS 5.1.1.  I set "explicit" to off, but then many songs we purchased on iTunes that are labeled as "clean" do not show up on his iPod Touch. If I set "explicit" to on, they do show up.

  • I have purchased many movies on iTunes, now they are adding closed captioning or subtitles to those movies, BUT can not reload them so I can view those subtitles.  I am mentally disabled and need the subtitles.

      Hello,  To start off, I have been a member of iTunes for awhile and have been content with them, until now.  I am legally disabled due to a head injury that happened when I was a teenager.  I am everyday functional, but I do need closed captioning(cc) or subtitles to understand the movie or TV show.  I have purchased lots of movies and TV shows from iTunes.  As any new business does, iTunes has updated itself and added features for their customers. They figure out what the consumers want and like.  I started to realize that iTunes added subtitles for the deaf and disabled, but as I was told by Apple there was nothing I could do about reloading those already purchased movies, to include the cc or subtitles.  Since then, I don't use iTunes and it's a real shame because I love electronics and it's technology.  I wish Apple would work with the consumer.  Why can't I reload the iTunes movies on my PC (Win7) with the subtitles, which they now offer, but didn't when I purchased them?  To me, that is wrong to do that to a customer.  Now that they are including cc/subtitles , everyone is able to enjoy iTunes and not be excluded.   Someone__please explain this to me.  Thank you for reading this.
    Carrie-

    Untill the movie studios agree to allow past downloads of movies outside of the US, you aill always have to have a copy of purchased movies on your computer. If not, you will have to buy them again if you delete them.

  • HT4613 Is it normal that closed captions do not show in the trailers and other promos, even if they are present in the movie?  I don't want to pay to rent a movie that supposedly has CC if it doesn't show up on the samples.

    I want to rent some iTunes movies with closed captions, but in order to confirm that the CCs work, tried watching the trailers first.  I have CCs enabled on the iPod touch, but no captions showed up on the trailers or promos.  Is this normal?  Can I be sure that if a movie is marked with CCs, that they will be there if I rent it?  Thanks.

    Hi Karen
    Unfortunately you will likely end up implementing either a totally manual system (meaning you just add a line at the top of your topic with your breadcrumb trail as you wish to display it, then link as needed) or you will have to resort to some third party solution that isn't part of RoboHelp's features.
    You might also take a moment and suggest to the RoboHelp development team that we need some flexibility with this aspect. (Link is in my sig)

  • Is this possible to put a Closed Captioned in small movie file

    I ponder if this is doable, attainable and workable to do a small video file that a colleague of mine wanted me to put in a closed captioned into small movie - less than 2 to 4 minutes (three tiny small movie files). I try to explain that I don't think it is doable, attainable and workable to create a closed captioned into small movie file with Final Cut Pro X - especially with 320 in width by 240 pixel in length. My colleague insisted that I do it anyway.
    I ask my colleague that if he has original movie file that I can work, so I can export the movie file that is larger than 320 by 240 pixel. He said no.
    I told him that how is it possible for me to work with closed captioned into three tiny movie files for presentation-training purpose only.
    My gut feeling tells me that it won't do any good, especially with TINY movie file with only 320 by 240. I told my colleague that it is MUCH easier to work with original file that is much larger than what he gave me. I mean, it is easier to edit and put closed captioned or whatever in any video footage.. whenever I am done with it, then export the finished file with closed captioned in it. I also explain to my colleague that if I work with file that is already exported movie file.. then I edit and put closed captioned in that exported file... then export it out of Final Cut Pro X, the quality would be considerable degradation.
    Unfortunately, my colleague insisted that I proceed with the project. I hesistate that I'd waste my time for achieving nothing with no measureable result because my gut feeling tells me that my perspective is correct, no?
    Am I correct? Is it worth it? Otherwise I'd tell my colleague that my answer will be a resounding no.
    Please advise. Thanks!

    You are right that placing text subtitles on such a small size video is likely not great.
    By default, FCP X does not support such a small video size; you'd have to blow it up to a standard size and then scale the result back down.But you can use a workaround to do all the work on 320x240 (see this web page:
    http://library.creativecow.net/articles/payton_t/FCPX_Custom-Resolution-Timeline s/video-tutorial). That would lessen the losses.
    Still, definitely not great.

  • HT200047 when watching a movie sub titles keep popping up and wont go away unless I stop the movie and restart it.  I have sub titles and closed caption off but it still comes up.

    dont know what to do. When watching a movie, closed caption comes up and it wont go away unless I stop the movie and restart it.  Closed caption and sub titles are off but still comes up.  I restored my apple tv to factory settings to see if that would stop it, but it didn't work still comes up. What can I do?

    Hi,
    I suggest you try the steps in this thread for test:

  • Closed Caption or Subtitles on Movies in iTunes for AppleTV

    I bought an Apple TV Dec 2008 but am waiting for Subtitles or Closed Captions so that I can watch a movie. Does anyone know when they are going to appear? I am nearly deaf. I did rent one that I thought I saw CC on but it turned out it was not. Right now I have to use Netflix while my ATV collects dust. Nice "screen saver" but pretty expensive. Thanks.

    I'm disappointed that I can't get the closed caption/subtitles on movies I've rented on iTunes. I'm pretty sure they exist, and if I had the physical DVD I could verify this. Will subtitles be available on Apple TV when they are available on the original? I tried the CC/subtitles on/off and nothing happened.

  • Movie and TV purchases do not include closed captioning

    I just started using AppleTV for movie and some TV show purchases.  Before I used Netflix via AppleTV exclusively.  The problem I am encountering is ITunes movie and TV productes do not come with closed captioning. 
    To troubleshoot I went to Settings, Audio & Video and checked 'closed captioning' to "ON".  But still no luck. 
    With Netflix everything came with 'cc' and I would like to order more from ITunes but I won't until I can figure out how to get 'cc' working. 

    Closed captioning is not available on all content, check the information at the point of purchase to see whether content has closed captioning or not.

  • 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.

  • 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!
