OK.....Here's the deal...
I work at MTV so you'd figure the building would be overflowing with people with a definitive answer....but unfortunately...suits get in the way. Here's the issue.....
After encoding about 1600 music videos to both MPEG2 files and WMV files with FlipFactory....someone came into the fold and informed us that they NEEDED to have Close Captioning and had to be redone with different comp reels. The thing is....several of us have tested the files we KNOW had the "channel 21" CC track by burning it to a dvd and had no luck bringing up CC.
Is it possible to compress such a delicate string of information and have it still funtion correctly?
Originally we were told that the wmv files were to be used online...and the MPEG2s were strictly for archives. But now we're being told that somewhere down the line they're going to want to use the MPEG2s for broadcasting on MTV2.
So can anyone shed any light on this subject? I know it's way off topic but i also know that you guys are MORE than knowledgable.
thanks
