    Line21? CC?

    Care to explain? Is this a bug report? I don't understand at all.

    Line21 is used for closed captions (for the hearing impaired) for TV and DVDs in NA

    for long while now... I always added the Line21 in post processing (DVD)
    and for TV I added only the Core CC in the processer for TV config (line21 is autoadded in graph)

    Torrettes and Manfred are aware but gave no reason why it is disabled. :(

    sample pics of what it should look like but now its a no go.

    note... the tv part still works because in the graph a filter is added before the line21 which allow displays of CC.

    well, I think everyone has a right to know why line 21 has to be disabled as this is a open source mediaportal.. If line 21 was illegal then why was it in RC1 at first place. I am deaf myself and am very frustrated to watch without closed caption even more without any explanation.

    I would appreciate it if someone can answer this for us please.

    Please see: 0002737: Closed Captions (CC) are forced - MediaPortal Bugtracker
    In short: until we find a way to let the user choose whether he wants CC or not, we opt to have CC always disabled rather than always enabled.

    Hi Arion,

    thanks for your respond and it's great news that the team is looking for ways to choose CC or not.
    I'm wondering would this patch would be of any use?.. btw many thanks Manfred.

    also would this be in a Mantis (bug report) so that it doesn't fall on "DEAF" ears? :)

    I know I was told the CC is not supported but I do have to say that I'm seeing overwhelming supports on the subtitle/teletext which kinds of shows how it's a need not a feature.

    many regards

    Thanks for the update on this. I should have searched before posting, always assume it is something I have done wrong.

    Fixed, I think. Certainly the vintage MP2 installer that I was using no longer installs the LAV filters. I can only assume that these were never part of the install package itself, but rather downloaded during the install, and that link no longer exists. Shame that the installer doesn't indicate this. Last time when I installed the...

    Looks like there's some kind of error regarding translations that I can't pinpoint about Subcentral. You'll find it in the log file I attached to my previous message. I don't understand it because I use MP in english, I search for subtitles in english and not in my native language, so I can't figure out what's translation got to do...
