what did he say button
A button to display the last few seconds of closed captioning, for when speech is unclear | |
So the device records the closed captioning. When somebody says something you can't quite hear, hit the button and it displays the last few seconds. That way, if you can't hear what somebody said, you can hit the button.
The "instant replay" on TiVo and the like doesn't cut it. If it was muddled
the first time, it'll probably be muddled on the replay. And you have to rewind a fair bit to pick up the captioning stream.
