On the TiVo S3/HD/HDXL DVR when you record a program. Doesn't matter if it's recorded off Digital Cable, HD, or OTA if the show has Closed Captioning it is recorded along with the stream onto the DVR.
Using one of many programs available one can easily transfer this recording to their computer. TiVo's will also transfer the show between other TiVo's. When you watch the transfered show on your TiVo you can turn on or off the CC.
If you transfer the show back to your TiVo from your computer it will till show the CC (Assuming you turn the CC on of course).
TiVo records your show using the MPG2 codec. When on your computer it of course is in the TiVo format with the extension .TiVo. There are several programs that will remove the header information and turn it into a correctly formated MPG2 file to play in most player software programs. When you even transfer this MPG2 back to your TiVo. You can turn on CC and again view the CC stream.
Now... What I want to know. Is HOW one gets can get a subtitle from a SD-DVD (Not concerned with Blu-ray rips at this point) into the MPG2 stream as a CC stream. Since SD-DVD's are in fact MPG2 files.
Has anyone succesfully "muxed" a Subtitle stream into a MPG2 file as a CC stream to be viewed on a TiVo DVR?
Thanks
