DISPLAY OF CLOSED CAPTIONED INFORMATION DURING VIDEO TRICK MODES

摘要

The invention concerns a method and apparatus for displaying closed caption information during trick mode playback. A video processor ( 150 ) can be configured to delete one or more pictures in a segment of the video presentation that contains at least one picture having one or more NUL characters. A remaining portion of the segment of the video presentation containing the closed caption information can be displayed during playback at a trick mode speed. The segment of the presentation can include, but is not limited to, a group of pictures (GOP). The method can further include the step of determining pictures within GOP containing non-displayable control codes and deleting those pictures containing non-displayable codes. The Video processor provides to a display device a remaining portion of the GOP containing the closed caption information for display at a trick mode playback speed.
