Met Opera to Apple TV but no "closed captions"

Hello,
I actually called the Met Opera people who seemed responable for the MET OPERA App. It Opera On-Demand App. It works great except unlike live in HD at the movies, OR on PBS television when they show a Met Opera, when transmitting it to my television using an Apple TV device, the Closed Caption goes away.
Now on the iPad itself I can watch an Opera and see clearly the closed caption which is very important because it helps explain the Plot to me and who the various character are, etc. I thought I'd mention it here and see if anyone's had a similar experience. The iPad shows the closed caption, it just vanishes when it reaches my HDTV.
Oh well..... Thanks for any feedback....

I've got a similar problem. I'm trying to export a movie with chapter marks, but do not want to use the iPod format. How did you solve your issue?

HT4613 But does new Apple TV HD support closed captioning?

Apple TV HD is new and small; but does it step forward software-wise to support Closed Captioning, and SubTitles?

It's a software issue plain and simple in my view (on AppleTV's side). I don't think the optical hardware is limited - it's unlikely Apple would have sourced a non-standard optical solution and seeing as they come with the ability to do better quality audio I'd imagine this does too.
Yes Macs support at least 24/96 over optical as I've just reattached my Mini to a Yamaha DSP to play some 24/96 studio masters from Linn.

Wait a minute peeps - this isn't necessarily a problem with iTunes. AFAIK iTunes does support 24-bit output - if you play a 24-bit ALE audio file via optical out of your Mac, it's 24-bit audio as far as I'm aware.
I was under the impression that the issue is with the ATV optical output itself - it's limited to 16-bit.

TS5150 Is there any way to view movies with subtitles but without closed captioning? I can get both or neither, but not subtitles only.

Just in the last year I have had problems with a lot of foreign language films where I can have both subtitles and closed captioning or neither. (I'm very fortunate not to require closed captioning, but I speak only English and Spanish, so I often need subtitles.) I am in my 50s and have been a huge foreign film fan since college, but I don't remember ever having this problem until very recently. Tech support chats with Netflix and AppleCare calls in re iTunes/AppleTV have not provided any answers. The current state of the art seems a step backwards from what never used to be a problem. I'd be interested in knowing if anyone else has had this issue. A search of "subtitles" brought 0 responses, so I have to assume I'm the first person to have asked about it.

You used the data. Verizon can not see what it was sued for. However your phone can see whats apps used the data. go to settings-data usage- there will be a place that says data usage cycle. line the dates up with your cycle. then there will be a bar graph below that extend bother white bars one all the way to the left and one all the way to the right. after those are extended below that will be a list of apps, there should be one that used over 2 gb and that will show you what app used that data in her purse

HT1498 Closed caption out of sync.

I just rented Extremely Loud & Incredibly Close this weekend but the closed caption was totally out of sync.
Is there a way to refund my money and try to rent it again?
tnx in advance.
lamps

It seems that the sync issue may be related to some playback setting or something. The video plays late (audio comes early). When I go and play the actual QuickTime file (using the QT Player) by clicking on the file in the Capture Scratch folder, it plays in perfect sync. So the actual QT file appears to be captured correctly.
Is there a setting in FCP5 that I should adjust? I've tried RT Safe, I've tried RT Unlimited. No joy. My Playback Output is default Apple FireWire NTSC. The capture quality was Full. I've tried Audio Playback Quality Low or High. Nothing brings my clips into sync.
But... when I open the 'Log and Cature' application, and THEN try to play my clips from the bin... all plays perfectly. It's an enigma. What gives?
I'm pushing a deadline and could use some help. I would really appreciate some insights.
Thanks,
Jim
Here's a little more system info (I'm posting from my PB):
I'm using FCP 5.0.4 on a Dual 2.7 G5 with 4GB of SDRAM. I'm running on Tiger OS X 10.4.6
I've captured from a Sony DSR 11 in NTSC mode. All the footage was shot on DVCam tapes using an NTSC Sony VX1000.

Remove closed captions from H.264 file after converting?

I processed a video file in Compressor using the Blu-Ray settings, and included a reference to a closed captions file. I now need to use the file in another application (Adobe Encore), but the closed captions appear to be hard coded in.
Is that correct? Is there anyway to remove closed captions from a H.264 file after it has been converted with Compressor?
Please help This is for a film festival, and I may not have time to process the video in Compressor again without the closed captions.

Fixed question spelling from 'form' to 'from'.

From the user manual:
"QuickTime files: Compressor adds the closed caption file as a closed caption track to the QuickTime output file."
The closed caption "track" can be turned on and off. It is not burned into the screen, as is the CC standard. Encore should handle the file just fine. You should be able to tell the DVD to have Closed Captioning turned off by default. That's all it takes.
Sub-Titles may be burned in to the screen. If you did sub-titles, yes, you'll have to re-encoded from scratch without them. When doing sub-titles in an DVD authoring program, you have the ability to enable and disable them, but in Compressor, they're burned in.

How Do I Enable Closed Captions in iTunes 11?

In iTunes 10 I had enabled Preferences>Playback>Show closed captioning when available. This check box has been removed from iTunes 11. How do I enable closed captioning in iTunes 11?
Thanks in advance,
Steve = : ^ )

Thanks. This represents a change in conceptualisation from Apple. Previously, closed captions were part of Accessibilty and it was assumed that anyone usings captions would want them on 24/7. It still works this way on iOS devices. On the Apple TV, e.g., closed captions are enabled for the device, via Settings > General > Accessibility > Closed Captions + SDH. Once enabled, captions will be displayed for any content that has them.
Subtitles on the other hand (and subtitles may be in the same language as the audio, they're not just 'foreign') must be enabled or disabled per item of content via the Subtitles menu, which is arrived at by holding the centre button on the remote.
This was the way it used to work in iTunes also. Rolling the Closed Captions into the subtitles menu is new, though I guess it makes sense.

Disable embedded closed captions from video Asset?

Hello all,
I have imported a H.264 file from Apple Compressor with embedded closed captions (not hardcoded I believe).
Is it possible to disable them? The automatic formatting of the captions is not suitable, and I would like to use the native Encore subtitle feature.
Please help, anyone who has experienced this before.
Best,
Nicholas

I think you might be right Stan. The video was supplied by a filmmaker, so I don't have any FCP projects.
I found an app called tsMuxer that looks inside video files for different components, and only recognised the video file. That makes me think they really are burned in. Oh well!
I'll post back if I find a different solution for further use.
Thanks again for your help Stan!

Pausing and restarting closed caption and audio

Can anyone help me with this issue - I have 2 sets of closed captions on one slide with audio that spans the both closed captions. I pause the audio at the end of closed caption one using a click box, when I restart it by clicking on the click box the audio plays the remaining content but the closed caption box will not display the 2nd lot of text????
Looking for help - please...
Carl.

I found a workarround (using the fact that Video Closed Caption is working corect):
Export the MP3 (from the library)
Remove slide audio (Audio > remove > Slide)
Convert MP3 to FLV with Adobe Media Encoder or a similar tool. Make the dimensions as small as possible
Insert Slide Video (Insert > Slide Video …)
Add the text for the Closed Captions to the video (Video > Edit Video Timing … > tab Closed Captioning
Mask the video on the stage with a rectangle (I tried to drag the video from the stage but you won't hear the audio)

When you buy a buy at the itunes store do you get access to closed caption on like a DVD

I would like to know if the movies you purchase from the Itunes store allows you to have closed caption. We have purchased a lot of amazon but the closed caption is not an option there and we would love to switch over to Itunes for movies.

Thank you for your reply. It was a game I purchased that is suppose to be compatible with IPOD 5G however it downloaded from the ITUNES store in the "Apps" of ITUNES, but shows that it is a game with the extension.ipa. There is no game tab in ITUNES. How do I get the game tab back in order to sync with my IPOD 5G

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.

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

Closed Captions not 508 Compliant!

In order to be Section 508 compliant – required by government (US) contracts – I need to be able to keep the closed caption on the screen until the user clicks or performs the requested task or indicates that they are done with that slide. Right now all I get is Closed Captions while the audio is playing. I know that I can add silence at the end of audio clips but the closed captions just blanks out when the audio clip is over. It is not physically possible for the hearing impaired to watch the action on the screen (how to use software for instance) and read closed captions at the same time, therefore the closed caption needs to remain “on” for the rest of the slide – or at least that should be an option. Without this option the closed captions and are useless for functional closed captioning and can’t be made Government (US) Section 508 compliant.
Does anyone have a work-around for this? We have Government contracts coming up and may have to get off Captivate if I can’t make this work!

I am unsure as to the actual answer, however, the "skin" that include the Closed Captions is actually an swf. The point of publishing to HTML is because some devices (ie I-pad) cant play the swf. So the HTML version skips the swf- which of course includes the "skin".
That said, I think the Table of Contents works in HTML, so maybe I am incorrect in sayin the "skin" is an swf. Maybe only the "playbar" is an swf. But it seems the CC is still related to the playbar.
If anyone knows how to use the built-in Closed Caption feature with HTML, I would LOVE to hear it. But I am suspecting the CCs will have to be done by hand.

Movie closed caption

Any movie i looked. Very exciting to download but there are no closed caption logo on any movies. But wonder if there are closed caption all movies if there no icon CC on it?? Some movie i want to download but i couldnt because when i download movie and no closed caption, it will waste my money! need feedback! No CC icon but have Closed Caption????

Hi,
There doesn't seem to be a way to change the position of the captions. The captions settings are explained on pages 38 and 39 of your TV's user's guide, and I don't see anything about positions!
As for the size of the picture when playing DVDs, you'll want to take a look at the section starting on page 50 of your user's guide. There are quite a few options for picture size. While the user's guide does go into detail about what each setting does, my suggestion is to simply cycle through them and use the one your like best. Repeatedly press the "PIC SIZE" button on your remote control to cycle through the available settings.
Good luck!
