The Primary Row is the row number, 0 – 484, where caption data is placed in a 720x486 video
for use within an NLE system. The Starting Column is the middle pixel number, 14 – 40, of the
first caption run-in white small dashed line of the caption placed onto the Primary Row.
NLE Compatibility Check 1
There may be other NLE hardware devices which work with CPC CaptionMaker and
MacCaption software. To check whether the CPC software works with your specific hardware,

not FireWire ) on your hard drive. Now send the uncompressed video out of
your computer to a TV with its closed caption decoder turned on. If you see captions, your
hardware is most likely compatible.

You can download one of the two sample NLE 720x486 black videos containing closed captions
