Help with closed captioning

Does anyone know how to correct the following issue: the
closed captioning works the first time you play the slide. However,
if I return to the slide and replay it, the close captioning no
longer appears. Any ideas?

Welcome to our community, mkovner08
When you say the Closed Captioning no longer appears, do you
mean to say that the area where it would appear no longer has the
highlighted section? Or is the section visible, but the Closed
Captioning text refuses to be presented on the section as it
normally is?
I've tested here on my own PC and it seems to work with no
issue. I can play a slide over and over and see Closed Captioning.
Perhaps try restarting Captivate or clearing the Temp files and
rebooting the PC?
Cheers... Rick

  • Open with "Closed Captioning" on, or always show CC

    I want to have my projects start with "closed captioning". I tried to down load the little SWF file, from the third party, recommended elseware, but it doesn't seem to work. It says it was made for Captivate 4, and I'm using 5.
    Any help? Is there another way to set CC as the default?

    Robert, I think the issue here is that after you insert the new slide and drag it to the first of the presentation, you then defeat the purpose of adding the new slide because you then configure THAT slide to execute the advanced action to set the variable.
    The point of introducing a new slide is to introduce a delay that gives the presentation time to "settle" before turning on the Closed Captioning.
    The bottom line is that you insert the slide, move it to the beginning and configure the timing for perhaps .1 or .2 seconds. THEN execute the action on the SECOND slide.
    Give that a try and see if things improve.
    Cheers... Rick

  • Problems with Closed Captioning (subtitles)

    The last upgrade of the STB software fixed many of the problems with closed captioning.  However, there are still a number of problems.  For those of us with hearing impairment, it would really be nice if they got it right.  Now, at least all of the closed captioned dialog shows up (which it didn't used to do -- before, it would overwrite itself on certain stations).  However, some of the dialog shows up on the screen for only a fraction of a second -- too fast to read it.  Please help us hearing impaired people!!!!!

  • Encoding videos with closed captioning / subtitles

    Now that closed captioning is supported on videos rented / purchased from iTMS, it is clear that the functionality is now supported on the Apple TV. Is anyone aware of any tool(s) that allow subtitles to be included? I already can embed the subtitles into the video using the various tools, but I am seeking a way to have true closed captioning that can be toggled on / off.
    As far as I know, the MP4 container does not support any type of subtitles in the container format. Therefore, Apple must be using a different format for its videos. Is it proprietary or some standard container format?

    Do not confuse Subtitles with Closed Captioning. For now, the only way to support subtitles is to place them in the video.

  • DSP CRASHES ON BUILD WITH CLOSED CAPTION FILE

    I've done a search but haven't found a problem similar to mine yet.
    I'm using DSP 2.05 and trying to author a DVD with closed captioning. Every time I go to Build/Format, whether it's to a DVD-R or a Disc image DSP shuts down with no error messages at all.
    I can successfully Build/Format the same project to a DVD-R or Disc image if I leave out the closed captioning file(.SCC).
    Any ideas what the problem might be?
    Please let me know if you need more information.
    Thanks for any suggestion!

    Thanks for the suggestion!
    I trashed all the parsing files and anything that wasn't vital but haven't tried the Preferences yet. I'll try it and see what happens.

  • Vhs to dvd with closed captioning

    i was able to transfer video clips from a vhs tape to a dvd (vcr > camcorder > mac) in iMovie then export to iDVD and burn the disk thereafter. I need the closed captioning to be tagged along to a dvd disk. How?
    Thanks

    The National Captioning Institute (NCI) could also be helpful. Here's a site with info on decoders (so if the TV option didn't work, you could possibly use a process like VCR/decoder/camcorder/to Mac
    http://www.ncihelpdesk.org/index.php?c=30&kat=Decoder%2FAudioLink
    Here's NCI's description of captioning, "Closed captioning is the process whereby captions are converted to electronic codes and inserted in the regular television signal, specifically on Line 21, a portion of the picture normally not seen. There are 525 horizontal lines in the television picture. Line 21 appears at the top of the picture and occurs just prior to the start of the lines carrying picture information." (see www.ncicap.org)

  • How can I browse movies with Closed Captioning?

    I want to be able to browse movies with CC, and can't find a way to quickly do this. I used to with the Powersearch feature, but I can't find it within the new iTunes. It makes looking for movies a very long and frustrating experience, since not having closed captioning is not an option for me.

    OK i replied with the idea of repurposing ``genres because that would give you what you want. I do not think there is any way else in iTunes 11.0.1 
    So if you created a Closed Caption Genre and assigned it to all your closed caption films, when you browse Genre and select Closed Caotion then all those films appear in the roight and you can browse to your heart's content.
    Or if you require more granular control the Genre field can have mahy entries sepasrated with a comma
    eg CC, Comedy or you could go CC Comedy.
    I do not know of another way of doing this maybe someone else can help.
    Did you used to be able to do this in earlier versions of iTunes

  • Problem with Closed Captioning

    I'm using Cp 5.5.  I have a click box that's set to Open Url or file.  I have selected the options to open the new url in a new window, and I've de-selected the checkbox to Continue playing the project.  So when the user clicks the click box, a new window opens with the linked-to web page, and the main project, including the audio, pauses.  So far, so good.  But the problem is with the closed captioning.  If the closed captioning is turned on, it acts as if the audio has not paused (even though it has), and when the audio would have finished, the closed captioning goes away.  When the user returns to the main project and clicks the Play/Pause button in the playbar, the audio picks up where it paused, but the closed captioning has already disappeared for that slide.
    Is this a bug?  Has anyone else seen this behavior?
    Thanks for any insights.
    Mister C.

    There have previously been some discussions here and on other forums on CC issues and my understanding is:
    1) the SD STB (QIP2500) does not support CC. What you are seeing is your TV interpreting the CC data, not the STB. So if something is being dropped, it is the TV doing it, not the STB, or maybe the characters really are not there.
    2) The HD STBs do support CC. I have seen some complaints here and on other forums about the text not remaining on the screen long enough; I do not use CC myself, but I have turned it on and off a number of times, and my HD DVR seems to leave it up a reasonable amount of time, but that is just my impression.
    There is no software upgrade available for now that I know of. There is supposed to be a new level later this year with new functions and fixes, I have no idea whether there is going to be anything in it that would address your CC issues.
    Hope this maybe helps a little bit.

  • Problems with closed captioning

    Hi,
    I'm watching Sons of Anarchy on apple tv - and I love it :-)
    However - sometimes it's hard to hear what they are saying and it sometimes loose some important stuff (english is not my first language).
    I switch on closed captioning which works flawless on the first episode I watch that day. OIn the next episode texts also shows - but the show in a new way with 3 lines of text and the last line always being updated and the rest pushed up. It's really confusing and can not be used as text :-(
    How can I fix this?

  • I'm having major issues with closed captioning

    I can't bring in SCC files. I'm working on a mac using 6 and cc and it's driving mad.

    Try this:
    Using PPRO CS 6.0
    1. Make sure that in the Program monitor, under the flag-menu options for the Program monitor (upper right icon), that "Closed Caption Display" is enabled and set to whatever your SCC is set to -- my SCC is CC1
    2. Select the Sequence you want captioning to appear in, and under "Sequence" menu in the main task bar, go to "Closed Captioning" and attach the SCC file
    You should see captions now when you scrub in the Sequence
    Good luck!

  • Syncing controls for video and audio, with Closed Caption

    Hello,
    First, I have Closed Caption and audio within my slide (no audio in video, because I couldn't use Closed Caption then) but now the audio can be turned on/off from project control bar while video continues to play. I tried to add a control bar to the video (hoping I would have control over both playing and audio) but now audio is controled by project slide control bar and video is controled by video control bar.
    Is there any way to sync the 2 control bars? Or at least give control to the audio on the video control bar instead of the project control bar?
    Thanks,
    ROV Tech

    Your theory is proven false.
    On the contrary, the variable framerate is the cause of sync issues and you just confirmed it.
    Similarly, would you say that FCP is completely useless for all practical purposes, because it can't create Blu Ray disks?

  • I need help with closing a running program. It seems like it does not count as a program. Tried to turn of the computer and closing all programs. Please help!?

    I have a problem with a grey text box. It writes and says all i do. For example: When i now write it says all the letters one for one. If i open a new rogram it says so. If i click on something it gives me information about it. I can click the box and drag it, but dont close it. I have restarted the computer and closing all windows and programs. It just popped out when i was pressing some buttons on the mac. I think it is a easy way to fix it, but i cant find out what it is named and search for it. I think it is made for help and i did not download anything to get it. If i change user on the mac it does go away when I am on the other user, but i really want to keep the one i have because off all the settings and programs i have.
    Please reply if you know anything about this.
    This is a printscreen of the box, the language is Norwegian if someone wonder...
    It is really annoying, I hope someone can help me out.

    Oh thanks alot! Really happy that people take the time to answer my `noob`questions! Would not find that out by my own.
    Thanks!

  • Help with audio captions in PSE 5.0?

    I use PSE5 to manage jpg photos stored in a single folder ("image files"). Many have audio captions; PSE5 puts some audio captions into the data base folder and others into an "audio captions" folder it creates. Does anybody know a way to ensure that all audio captions consistently go into the same folder?

    The audio captions go into the "Audio Captions" folder. The entry for the same is also made into the database of the catalog.

  • Need help with quiz captions in Captivate 6

    I have a six slide quiz set up in Captivate 6. I can get it to work but I need correct and incorrect captions to pop up when the answers are submitted. I am having difficulty figuring out how to make that happen.
    I want to click submit for each question and have either aa correct or incorrect caption come up.
    My other option is to wait and submit all and then when they go back to review (if they do) when they see their wrong answers, a caption will be there to tell them why it was incorrect.
    Can anyone give m any insight to how to make either of these happen?

    Hello and welcome,
    Success/failure captions are already there, you can customize them on each slide. It is even possible to have more than one failure level (if multiple attempts on question level) and have different feedback based on attempt.
