43、ion (noise, sound, surrounding conditions) associated to an event and the term subtitling rather used in relation to the textual (in a picture or as a sequence of words and letters) expression describing or reproducing the same event. Using this textual expression, different types of presentation te

44、chniques (text overlapped on the image in one or several languages, the language of signs or even audio description) may be used. However “captioning“ is more common in the U.S.A. and is typically used for same language transcription, for instance for the hearing impaired; “subtitling“ often refers

45、to language translation of foreign programmes. The terms “open captions“ and “closed captions“ are also very common: Open captions (also called “burnt-in“ “in-vision“, or “hardsubs“) are encoded as a permanent part of the video image, irreversibly merged into the frames. They cannot be disabled, and

46、 no specific “track“ is needed to convey them. Also, no special equipment or software is required for playback, and any character set (including pure graphics) can be used. Consequently this technique allows for very complex transition effects and animation (for instance karaoke song lyrics). Howeve

47、r it does not allow for multiple user-selectable variants of subtitling (such as English, English Hard of Hearing, and French). Closed captions are viewer-selectable and carried over a separate “track“ or “component“ (which may be collocated inside the video track, but not in the video data itself).

48、 Examples of closed captions include the Line 21 Closed Captioning system in the USA (carried as text), Teletext subtitles in Europe (text as well) or DVB subtitles (graphics). The carriage of this separate, discrete data stream may be problematic in some contexts. Nowadays both the subtitling and t

49、he captioning terms are disappearing in favour of the “timed text“ expression. In the other clauses of the present document, “subtitling“ refers to both “subtitles“ and “closed captions“; open captions are carried inside the video data and do not require a specific handling. In other categorization, digital video subtitles are sometimes called internal, if theyre embedded in a single video file container along with video and audio streams, and external if they are distributed as separate file (that is less con
