Description

Video tools can encode and decode CEA-608 and CEA-708 closed captions through an open C library. This helps broadcast, streaming, and accessibility workflows preserve or generate caption data.

It is caption codec support, not a subtitle editor by itself. Accurate captions still depend on source timing, text quality, and the application muxing or rendering them correctly.
