1. Name of Weblog is “PurpleDead”, I think that’s immature and pointless.
2. That weblog have only one and probably will never again.
3. Their profile doesn’t reveal, probably work for Sorenson, hard-cord fan of SVRS, etc.
4. The source given by Biz.Yahoo have no actual reference or original on whom report. (okay, maybe I don’t know that part)
5. The only true I know about Purple, they’re not bankrupt. Not yet, because there is no confirm at moment.

Don’t be jumpy until we have the actual fact information about Purple. Don’t be sorry for them, just do whatever you like their service or not. I only like them because I was able to use on my MacBook to use VRS with iChat.

A comedy video in ASL on about the Slug Bug game. I also provide the Closed Caption for anyone who don’t understand ASL. Enjoy!

All bars and restaurants with TVs would be required to show closed captioning under legislation quickly working its way through a Senate committee.

But the measure hit a snag Thursday on its way out of the Senate Judicial Proceedings Committee.

The bill is aimed at making it easier for deaf people to watch programs in bars and restaurants. Though committee members all said they liked the bill in principle, some thought it might be overkill to subject every patron to the text running across the bottom of each screen.

Current, you can always be kind to the waitress or server to turn CC on while you can enjoy watch something happen in the world. I have done it several time. Rarely, there was difficult for people who are unfamiliar on how to set the CC from the features. Bummer, all brand television has weird CC to turn on. Should have CC on remote to notice easy.

For some thoughtful, there are certainly people that I have hear or know that been complain, when CC appear to block in certain area. I think it’s better if they should set the transparent background to meet their satisfactory. Every HDTV with ATSC is always trend come with it. Of course, it causes the problem with cable box that DOESN’T offer the optional. I think the new FCC law that should told to every cable box from the cable company would need to re-mod to digital CC to meet.

Thank Miss-Delectable!

However, on film I recently watch called District 9. I find different thing about SDH. That DVD movie is from TriStar Picture, own by Sony Entertainment, does support SDH. But don’t let the menus or display confuse you when you saw the subtitle. For brief time, I can see it’s similar from I saw first one on Blu-Ray movie. That’s how it got me think of that. But surprise, it’s not only Blu-Ray but also on DVD.

Their SDH make you think it’s CC but it’s actual SDH during the block with black background like CC. Only, different that’s it block on certainly area that I could complain. And it’s pretty bigger font that I could read-able which excellent for people with low visual. I assure it’s good thing. Suppose, its new format in market from Sony Entertainment this time and after.

Here is the screenshot that give example on what it look like.

Select ENGLISH and it appear in yellow font without block background.

Select ENGLISH SDH, it appears in alike classic CC style with bigger font. It also let you aware on who person speak.

I was except to get on DVD menus like usually I would go. There is none, probably it’s Disney, I thought they protect. I turn subtitle on but it doesn’t have available. I thought, okay, I’m sure there is Closed Caption (CC) for a sure as HDTV is turn CC on with S-video cable plugged in.

Guess what? No CC has appear for few minutes, I thought that’s something very wrong. I tested on my laptop as I thought it would be no wrong. I realize the label after pop in the DVD slot, it said “UP_RENTAL”. I’m unfamiliar and thought they set the new version.

So, I went on and google about if there is common problem. I found there is, from the redbox’s weblog where I saw most comments, most are angry and disappointment.

We need to let Disney to aware about it. I’m mad! There is more from other weblog, that person have an rants opinion about this movie and studio and whatever.

Think about it.. How can Deaf makes a communicating each other when fire? And even the robbing the bank? Boy, that’s well challenge to deal with it. I’m looking forward to see the whole film when it release in theatre or on DVD.

On the subtitle, it showed in translator what ASL saying. It’s seems flawless. To point out that on last three words, we usually spell “A-S-L” to make it brief. It looks like Signed Exact English (SEE) because Peter signing three words that way SEE is like. Thank to my friend for point on that part of scene.

This episode of Family Guy is original air on November 2003. The title called “When you wish upon a Weinstein“.

If you’re into polite or love to read their opinion about Democracy, you should support them! They would surely bring CC on TV broadcast. I think it’s good that they’re plead for donation and offer something we need it.

I see Emma doesn’t want anybody know that she is deaf. Don’t want to have someone pity on her as the lower on. Yet, she appear to look like she is hearing and yet have problem to deal with her power. Went to see doctor who see know the sign language, even without certification interpreter, help to find what’s wrong with Emma. My assure, it’s her work, part personal, and able to have a benefit without waste time to check with doctor.

Wow, look at the bed! There is alarm clock with bed shaker under the mattress and flashing is over her head. Doesn’t it seem like too strong enough to have Earthquake?! Anyway, I’m looking forward on next few more episodes on what she is make of. Probably something deadly! Or just useful for good power.
