Abstract

A multi-lingual transcription system for processing a synchronized audio/video signal containing an auxiliary information component from an original language to a target language is provided. The system filters text data from the auxiliary information component, translates the text data into the target language and displays the translated text data while simultaneously playing an audio and video component of the synchronized signal. The system additionally provides a memory for storing a plurality of language databases which include a metaphor interpreter and thesaurus and may optionally include a parser for identifying parts of speech of the translated text. The auxiliary information component can be any language text associated with an audio/video signal, i.e., video text, text generated by speech recognition software, program transcripts, electronic program guide information, closed caption text, etc.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates generally to multilingual transcription systems, and more particularly to transcription systems that process synchronized audio / video signals containing auxiliary information components from an original language to a target language. The auxiliary information component is preferably a closed captioned text signal synthesized with a synchronized audio / video signal. Background technique [0002] Closed captioning is an assistive technology designed to provide television access for the deaf and hard of hearing. It is similar to subtitle in that it displays the audio portion of the television signal as printed words on the television screen superior. Unlike subtitles, which are hidden as coded data sent within the television signal and provide information about background noise and acoustics, closed captions are permanent images in the video portion of the television signal. A viewer wishing to see closed captions must use a...
