Grant Laird - closed captions test

[thelastnic]

i think it is huge breakthrough and necessary. For people that travel overseas you see how much further ahead the US is when comes to a disability then many other countries. i think that deaf need this, for thos who disagree-it cheaper to have them work then to have them on assistance. i wasnt aware about online captioning so it is great people are bringing it to forefront.

I am concern about your bad video. It's not good speed.

[TwistyPuzzleFreak]

why dont they call it subtitles?

[Quaketornado]

Because with the closed caption the viewer can choose what language they want the subtitle to be. Check out ma channel i just made a vid about Caption and Subitles

[Armando51roosters]

Because subtitles are language translations.

[HighAway]

Actually the difference is that CC is a hallmark for the deaf as subtitles are basically a translations including English visibly.

[thelastnic]

subtitles is an interpretation and not necessarily word for word, as in foreign language movies. captioning is word for word

It is easy to make a video that is captioned to work on an iPod. After adding captions with MovCaptioner, export your movie with the captions as MPEG-4. This will combine the text and video into one track and the sound on another. It will then play on a video iPod.

Mac users might want to try MovCaptioner ($22 shareware). Look for it on Versiontracker or MacUpdate. It's real easy to use.

I have a hearing problem and wear hearing aids. I can't imagine what it must be like for those that can hear nothing. I have trouble with some videos and would like the option of putting it on any video i receive.

Windows movie maker enables you to implement captioning..have a look at mine...it isn't set to a black background..but I am happy with the end product..albiet..text needs a different colour

[billhung]

google video has closed caption videos. But not all videos in google has closed captions

[thecdnguy]

Great comments. What program you use to put subtitles on top of your video?

I am very new at this, and I'd like some info.

Thanks.

he actually starts out saying" what he is first saying is "you know up to know there has be a lot of talk about closed captioning problems and you can't see them online. looking back 25 years ago..."

[jskern2002]

the technology is cool but it doesn't match up with what he is actually signing. he is giving a summary of what he wrote online in his own words and this is a cut and paste job.
