The StreamScope RM-40 transport stream monitoring system now includes next-generation closed-caption monitoring and auditing capabilities. It can be obtained via a free software upgrade for existing customers. Service providers can monitor multiple TV services to ensure closed captions are accurate, synchronized, complete and appropriately placed on the screen in compliance with FCC 14-12. If a closed-caption issue is detected, the StreamScope RM-40 provides a real-time report, including high-res video thumbnails and text. This can help operators prevent fines of up to $8,000 per hour for flagrant violations.
