Abstract
An arrangement and method for receiving a compressed video stream and generating a decompressed video signal and closed caption data therefrom employs a video decoder a video decompressor that decompresses the compressed video stream to generate a decompressed video signal. The video decoder has a closed caption data embedder that produces closed caption data contained in the compressed video stream for embedding into a video output signal of the video decoder. A single video signal output port is coupled to the video decompressor and the closed caption data embedder and produces the video output signal which includes the decompressed video signal and the embedded closed caption data.
