Provides support for closed captioning setup.
Closed Captioning
Note: When receiving HD-SDI, both CEA 608 and CEA 708 are supported, with CEA 608 and CEA 708 (containing CEA 608
packets) converted to line 21 closed captioning on outputs down-converted to SD.
• Closed Captioning Input Status Displays incoming Closed Captioning status as follows:
• If closed captioning is present, a message similar to the example shown
left is displayed. Also displayed is the VANC line number of the incoming
closed captioning packet (or SD waveform-based VANC line number).
• If no closed captioning is present in the video signal, Not Present or
Disabled is displayed.
Note: • Packet closed captioning status Captioning Rejected Due To
message can appear due to the items described below. The
closed captioning function assesses cdp_identifier,
cdp_frame_rate, ccdata_present, and caption_service_active
items contained in the packet header to make the determinations
listed below. Refer to CEA-708-B for more information.
• caption service is marked as inactive display indicates bit in
packet from upstream source may inadvertently be set as
inactive. In this case, closed captioning data (if present) is still
processed and passed by the card as normal.
• The closed captioning function does not support PAL closed
captioning standards.
• Closed Captioning On/Off and
HD Insertion Line
Turns on or turns off Closed Captioning insertion on the output.
Note: • Closed captioning is set to standard default line number (line 21)
for SD output.
• Although the output line drop-down will allow any choice within the
9 thru 41 range, the actual range is automatically clamped (limited
to) certain ranges to prevent inadvertent conflict with active
picture area depending on video format. See Ancillary Data Line
Number Locations and Ranges (p. 3-8) for more information.
• The card does not check for conflicts on a given line number.
Make certain selected line is available and carrying no other data.
• Closed captioning line may contain active unintended data even if
closed captioning is set to Off.
