HDE-3000 - 50 -
NOTE: For situations where caption file encoding and serial encoding are performed
simultaneously and both encoding functions are attempting to control a transcoder, the
caption file encoder has higher priority.
5.7.2 Transcoder 2 Setup Menu
The transcoder 2 setup menu allows you to define the configuration of the secondary
language transcoder (transcoder 2: 608 CC2 or CC3 to 708 service 2). It allows you to set
the service descriptor language for Service 2. It also allows you to define three separate
configurations – one for caption file encoding, one for encoding via serial, and another for
when neither is being encoded.
“Language”: This will be the language that the service descriptor uses for Service 1. The
options are as follows; English (eng), Spanish (spa), French (fre), Portuguese (por),
German (ger), Danish (dan), Italian (ita), Finnish (fin), or Swedish (swe).
“Default”: This setting defines the configuration of transcoder 2 when not encoding a
caption file and not encoding via serial.
“OFF” = the transcoder is disabled and existing 708 service 2 captions are passed
through unaltered. This is necessary to allow adding vchip to HD video that has
already been captioned.
“CC2” = the transcoder is enabled and it will transcode received 608 CC2 captions to
708 service 2. This allows adding 708 service 2 captions to video that only contains
608 captions.
“CC3” = the transcoder is enabled and it will transcode received 608 CC3 captions to
708 service 2. This allows adding 708 service 2 captions to video that only contains
608 captions.
“for Caption Files”: This setting defines the configuration of transcoder 2 when a caption file
is being encoded.
“OFF” = the transcoder is disabled and existing 708 service 2 captions are passed
through unaltered.
“CC2” = the transcoder is enabled when CC2 captions are being encoded from a caption
file.
“CC3” = the transcoder is enabled when CC3 captions are being encoded from a caption
file.
