For the latest info, please visit our Web Closed Captioning Solutions page.
Breakthrough in Closed Captioning Workflow
ATS: Automatic Time Stamp takes closed captioning to the next level of automation. All you need is a transcript and a video file with good quality audio. ATS automatically synchronizes the transcript with the video, up to 30 times faster than real-time.
See the ATS page for more information.
21st Century Communications & Video Accessibility Act of 2010
On Friday, October 8, 2010, the 21st Century Communications and Video Accessibility Act of 2010 was signed into law by President Barack Obama. This new law expands the requirements for web video captioning and accessibility services. More specifically, it requires that any closed captioned television program be closed captioned when delivered over the Internet. The law also requires all devices capable of displaying video to be able to display closed captions.
See Congressman Ed Markey (D-MA) comment on the passing of his bill (CC).

MacCaption Player installed at Smithsonian National Gallery of Art
"When visitors to the National Gallery of Art’s new installation of Giuseppe Arcimboldo’s bizarre portraits that blend vegetables, animals and objects watch the accompanying film, they will have the option to activate closed captioning thanks to a CPC MacCaption Player system."
