#9192 closed defect (Fixed)

CC608 "clear display" codes are not processed correctly

Description

EIA-608 closed captions are being displayed too long (usually until the caption changes). This isn't usually a big problem except for cases where the captioner has explicitly cleared the captions to avoid obscuring some on-screen graphic.

I think this problem was introduced when the OSD was ported to MythUI. In CC608Reader::Update, the captions should be cleared when "subtitle.clr == 0 && subtitle.len == 0". However, SubtitleScreen::DisplayCC608Subtitles does not update the display when this happens.

The attached patch seems to fix the problem.

Doesn't appear to make any difference to my limited set of test clips - so please shout if it causes unexpected issues.
