[QUOTE="mm1352000, post: 1123344, member: 82144"] Hello again When timeshifting or recording digital channels (ATSC, clear QAM etc.), MediaPortal's TV Server takes the stream received from the tuner, pulls out the content for the channel(s) you want, and writes that content to the HDD. If you compare the content to the original broadcast you'd see almost zero modification. TV Server has no knowledge of the presence of EIA 608 or CEA 708 CC, and does not have to do anything special to preserve those CC. The CC comes naturally as part of the video stream. All of the above is to say: yes, it is Kodi's fault if you don't see CC (assuming the channel broadcaster is actually broadcasting them!). Not that I like to blame. As above: the display of EIA 608 and CEA 708 CC for digital recordings (ATSC, clear QAM etc.) depends entirely on the front end (ie. Kodi or MP). We can't make any claim about Kodi or Kodi's capabilities. If you're sure that CC exists in the streams, and Kodi claims to support CC, but you're not seeing CC... then I'd ask what is going on over at the Kodi forum. Chances of it being an "MP TS issue" are basically zero. As you say: if MP can display the CC then any other player can too (assuming they support CC). Other players may also be able to display CC for h.264 recordings/channels even though MP currently cannot. The h.264 thing is an MP [frontend] limit. Regards, mm [/QUOTE]
