Steve:

I checked in with our partner's from Oregon State University.  Their response 
is provided below (from Rick Brand whom I've cc'd on this message)

They use LNS for live captioning.  There are apparently a number of different 
ways live captioning can happen depending on what the delivery medium is.  The 
latest technology to connect on the internet is iCap.  It allows the audio to 
stream to the captioning company and for the data to be returned so it can be 
embedded as text over the network.  The old way was used phone lines.  LNS is 
very good at listening to your situation and suggesting a solution.  They are 
located in Portland but have become a national service company.

All

We are researching how to add close captioning to our cable and web streaming 
broadcasts of our Council and Planning Commission meetings.     Just curious 
what others are doing to accomplish this.   We currently use the EDIUS software 
to record our meetings.

Thanks

Steve
