All we need to get started is a dub of the master videotape, with accurate time code, of the programming you would like captioned or subtitled. We accept all major tape formats, including Betacam, BetaSP, DigiBeta, BetaSX, MPEG IMX, VHS, S-VHS, DVCAM, DVCPRO, DVCPRO(50), Consumer DV, D-2, ¾” U-matic and 1” Type C.

Clients who arrange their own encoding can send us a worktape, or upload a digital file of their programming to our FTP server. Worktapes should include VITC or first generation LTC time code which exactly matches the master. In addition, a time code window burned onto the video is preferred. Files uploaded to our FTP server should have a time code window burned onto the video which exactly matches the master. While we can work with most file formats, we prefer MPEG-1 or MPEG-4.

If you have an accurate post-script and/or translation into the desired languages, you can include a disk or email it to us.

For streaming media captioning or subtitling, just send us your digital file, either on CD or via our FTP server, together with the script and/or translations if available.
