How to Closed-Caption: Sample CC video

QuickTime 7.2 and iTunes 7.4 now support CEA-608 standard closed-captions. To view the closed-captions, set “Show closed captioning when available” to ON at the iTunes/QuickTime preferences.

This video is a short video I made with an Everio camera (SD) and iMovie ‘08. I used Annotation Edit to create the captions and Compressor 3 to compress it with an embedded closed captioning track.

This video is just a sample so you can try out closed-captioning under the new supported standard. In the next release I’ll show you how you can create captioned videos. The video is about 20+ minutes long and in high definition so you can expect a pretty large file. Be patient with the up coming download. (depending on final length, the video may be split in sections…)

About the video: I visited the Tortuguero Lagoon located between the towns of Manatí and Vega Baja. Caimans live in the area but these are rare and typically small. It is very safe and an excellent place for fishing and kayaking. I recorded the video by mounting the camera to a monopod. the wind kicks up at the end… you’ll find the closed captions useful.

  1. Captions are not compatible with embedded players. Future upgrades to the QuickTime player are expected to solve this issue.
