ccextractor new cc format for msnbc?

Carlos:

Can you take a look at this ts file?

If you remember, you created a custom version of ccextractor for the Hauppuage tv tuner.

There now seems to be periods inserted into the text.

Attached are the files.

You can download the ts file here:

Again, this is from a Hauppauge tv tuner.

I have experienced issues from a potential hacker.

Sincerely, William Johnston

I'm not super involved in the code these days but someone that is currently active will take a look ASAP.

ccx_encoders_srt.c.zip

Playing with the ccx_encoders_srt.c file I found this "solution" that removes periods in places like the example you showed @williamj77 . However, it also strips periods from the ends of all sentences, which affects expected output in other cases. Thats why I'm not making a pull request because it can affect other use cases. Still, it might help someone else refine the logic

Hello,

Is the output correct?

If so, can you send me the Windows exe?

I am more of a C#/Java developer.

It does work @williamj77 here's the complete file:

output.srt.zip

If you want to try it by yourself on other files, you just have to replace the encoder with the one in my last comment and follow the standard build instructions. Hope this helps!.

If the problem is with the input, we shouldn't do anything. Periods can be removed by a post script if needed.

If the problem is that we're not processing the input correctly, then we should figure out what's going on. But if players such as VLC display the periods, then they're just there and there's nothing for us to fix.

Carlos:

The cc is correct for a different tv channel.

And I have been experiencing hacker issues.

Again, I was wondering if the output is correct for the updated code.

Sure, @321david123 's code seems to output the same captions as before. It'll be work great with a little refining. Till then, here's a post-processing-binary for removing unnecessary periods [srt-cleaner] (https://drive.google.com/file/d/1YsXf_y5mRu7JNSSFwxR9eXeVaHofQuUR/view?usp=share_link) github

Use like this : $srt-cleaner your_input.srt your_output.srt

Edit : I was trying running it with if (ccx_options.hauppauge_mode){//period-removing-logic} but @321david123's logic works without that. Here is the binary of code as of 29 Apr 2025 + period removing logic contributed by @321david123 : updated ccxr

Apr 29 '25 09:04 vatsalkeshav

Thanks again.

But please take a look at the srt file with added periods.

Again, can you create an exe with the updated code?

Hi, if you're using windows, then you could easily just run the docker build for testing out different files. Here's the instructions to run the main branch, you can just replace the \path\to\video\ with the location of your file and then copy and paste into terminal. For testing another file, just run docker run --rm -v $(pwd):$(pwd) -w "$(pwd)" --user $(id -u):$(id -g) ccextractor:latest <YOURFILE> --hauppauge -o output.srt

git clone https://github.com/CCExtractor/ccextractor.git
cd ccextractor\docker
docker build --platform linux/amd64 -t ccextractor .
copy \path\to\video\all_in_with_chris_hayes_20250326_1958.ts .
docker run --rm -v $(pwd):$(pwd) -w "$(pwd)" --user $(id -u):$(id -g) ccextractor:latest all_in_with_chris_hayes_20250326_1958.ts --hauppauge -o output.srt

If you wanted to run it with 321david123's new SRT encoder, I've made a branch for the updated code(credit for the code goes to 321david123)

git clone https://github.com/steel-bucket/ccextractor/ -b 321david123-FIX
cd ccextractor\docker
docker build --platform linux/amd64 -t ccextractor .
copy \path\to\video\all_in_with_chris_hayes_20250326_1958.ts .
docker run --rm -v $(pwd):$(pwd) -w "$(pwd)" --user $(id -u):$(id -g) ccextractor:latest all_in_with_chris_hayes_20250326_1958.ts --hauppauge -o output.srt

This is for testing files, if there's need for exe, we can prepare one.

Hello,

I don’t like docker on my machine.

Is there a workaround?
