#11899: Garbled CCs on some stations
---------------------------------------+------------------------
Reporter: faginbagin <mythtv@…> | Owner: stichnot

Component: MythTV - Captions | Version: 0.27-fixes

---------------------------------------+------------------------
Closed captions of shows recorded from CBC (Canadian Broadcasting
Corporation) are garbled on 0.27, but work reasonably well on 0.23. I'm in
Metro Detroit where we get Windsor, Ontario TV from our cable service,
Wide Open West.
My production mythtv environment is 0.23 but I want to upgrade to 0.27. In
my testing I discovered this problem. I have two samples that demonstrate
the problem available on my web server:
http://www.hbuus.com/~buus/rollup.mpg - a show that uses rollup captions
http://www.hbuus.com/~buus/popup.mpg - a show that uses popup captions
CCextractor v 0.66 has no problem decoding the captions in these
recordings. As proof, I am attaching rollup.srt and popup.srt.
I've also seen CC problems on one show (Buffy the Vampire Slayer) recorded
from basic cable station, FX, but I want to do more testing to see if
other shows on that station are affected. I also want to test other
stations I care about but don't have current samples. Closed captions on
HD broadcast stations and other basic cable stations appear to be OK.
