Abstract
Systems, apparatuses, and methods are described for detecting anomalies in closed captioning or other video presentation systems. Anomaly detection may involve comparing detected captions that are delivered to one or more end devices (return captions) with corresponding scheduled captions. Other types of information may also be similarly compared between original scheduled instances of information to be delivered with the actual (return) delivered information. Such other types of information may include, for example, ratings information (such as V-chip ratings and/or flags) and/or content (e.g., advertisement) insertion information such as SCTE-35 signaling.
