I know, I love the messed up cc's, sometimes they are better than the dialog of the show you are watching! :lol:

I used to use a captioned phone and one time I must have made a call involving a donation to an organization. At the end of the convo the last line was, "thanks for your urination"!

I gave up using my cap-tel.
 
I been watching 'Have gun will travel' online and the word 'Taliban' came up and I thinking WT? how did they get on the show then I realize it should
read ' Paladin' .



I found a lot of old shows online with CC , only if the CC were not so
messed up. :roll: But this one of Superman really got my attention ! LOL! I guess parents will have to check the CC before letting their see this one.
 
As per FCC's rule, CC must be always accurate. And yet YouTube under Google calls it CC. It uses an automatic speech recognition so it's not CC at all. I assume that Google (corporation) doesn't know the difference. Wonder if there are deaf employees in that company and they don't do anything about mislabeling.

Youtube is dividing into 2 parts.

If video upload by normal members aren't required to be closed captioning, but Google does have voice to text conversion - that's not perfect nor good.

If Google distribute official video, such as movies and TV shows - usually paid contents have official CC support.

iTunes, Amazon, Google Play, Xbox Marketplace - they are video distribution and they require to have closed captioning per FCC rule.

I noticed that iTunes removed contents if they are not closed captioning.

I was going to watch NCIS on line but you have to pay to see it. Sometime there is nothing good on TV so I watch old TV shows online that didn't have CC when they first came out .

Netflix has NCIS.
 
It is interesting to me that cc is required, but the quality of cc is crap in many things...
But they are fun to laugh at...
 
CC is horrible on our local news. So many mistakes, quite a few embarrassing ones.

Local news was doing a story on charter schools....trying to say
"males have lower than average test score" CC typed "males have lower testicles"

There are many shows/movies I just gave up on due to the CC being so awful.

Have you reported to FCC?

Closed captioning for movies and TV shows shouldn't based on voice to text conversion so it must be done by captionist - person who heard to video and typing into texts - form into script to be encoded or added to video.
 
The automated captions are worse than worthless. They make absolutely no sense.
 
Netflix has NCIS.

I wanted to see it for free on line. I can see it on TV . I liked it a lot better when Cote de Pablo as Ziva David was on it .





@ Reba I end up turning the automated captions off and miss a lot that way too.
