Hello, I was wondering if anyone knows if it is possible to save a copy of the closed caption text for a recorded program. I want to be able to save closed caption transcripts of some shows I've recorded. How does MythTV store this information? I know it's in there somewhere, because it handles the closed captions independently of the TV. Thanks, juz10mac |

if I'm not mistaken it's not independent of the tv, it's in the vbi or first couple of lines of the video file. |

There is a program from SourceForge called ccextractor that I've used. It will extract the closed captions into a text file. http://ccextractor.sourceforge.net/ |

Just started to play around with this. What I didn't realize until I now is that the default setting is to save it off as a .srt file. This is some standard file format that will allow players like xine and mplayer to display the captions. Now I can add the captions back into shows that I have re-encoded into xvid. Cool! |
