EXAMPLES

Create an Apple XML file from Program B of a previously prepared MacCaption .cca file:

./MacCaption.app/Contents/MacOS/MacCaption \

–import=cpc_cca -tcmode=29.97df -displaymode=caption –ioptions=Ab –input=my.cca \

–export=apple_xml –output=my.xml

Import CC1 captions from a .scc file and create a QuickTime Podcast movie:

./MacCaption.app/Contents/MacOS/MacCaption \

–import=scc -tcmode=29.97df -displaymode=caption –ioptions=A1 –input=my_input.scc \

-movie=my_source_movie.mov \

–export=podcast –output=my_podcast.mov

Decode CC1 and CC2 captions from the same CCIR 601 720x486 video and add the caption data to an MPEG-2

video using the CCube Linear encoding algorithm.

./MacCaption.app/Contents/MacOS/MacCaption \

-import=nle -tcmode=29.97df -displaymode=caption -ioptions=A1 -input=my_720x486_movie \

-ioptions=B2 -input=my_720x486_movie \

-encodecc=A1B2 \

-movie=my_input_mpeg_movie.mpg \

–export=mpegccubelinear –output=my_output_mpeg_movie.mpg

Import CC1 captions from .scc file1 into Program A and CC1 captions from .scc file 2 into Program B;

Export a .scc file containing the original CC1 from file 1 and CC2 converted from CC1 from file 2;

Export a black movie containing the same CC1 and C2 data and insert the same captions into a DV movie.

./MacCaption.app/Contents/MacOS/MacCaption \

–import=scc -tcmode=29.97df -displaymode=caption –ioptions=A1 –input=my_file1.scc \
