Capturing Closed Captions

[Bizuser]

I've somewhat perfected the process of capturing both live broadcasts and VHS tapes using my canopus ADVC 100, ScenalyzerLIVE, and then using TMPG to encode to DVD.

But in the process, closed captions are lost, and my girlfriend needs them due to hearing loss.

I've searched this site, and the web, and I find lots of references to the topic, but I have not found any clear answer. The most thorough process seems to be covered at this site but the process it describes for capturing from live TV or VHS is very convoluted, and involves a direct capture card rather than a canopus device.

So basically, am I out of luck when it comes to CC and the canopus? Is the line 21 data dropped by the device?

How do TiVo and other similar devices handle CC? If they handle it well, I'm willing to go down the path of buying a TiVo and hacking it perhaps.

Update ... searching a bit harder in the forum found this post, which looks interesting. Will continue to research. Any ideas welcome!

Update - I could not get this to work (CC capturing) with my canopus. I also have a WinTV-pvr250, and I was able to capture CCs and have then play fine on my set-top DVD player/TV combo. I had to make a few registry changes, but it was all documented on this site:

So I'm now able to capture direct to MPEG2 using the WinTV2000 program, edit using womble, and burn to dvd, then watch the video WITH CCs! Pretty cool!
