[Avid-L2] Monitoring Closed Caption in HD?

 

I am trying to monitor closed caption files via HD-SDI. None of our HD monitors seem to do it. So what I am now doing is playing the show on FCP or AVID and digitizing that onto another system.(while laying off simultaneously to tape) When the system is finished digitizing, then I play that digitized movie back in QuickTime, which has no problem displaying the closed caption data. To check the tape, I have to digitize a piece of the tape to verify it has stuck to the tape. What a pain!

This is so awkward! Does somebody make a black box that will allow one to playback a tape or look at a AJA card output and display HD closed captioning? I have searched the web and only find late generation monitors that state they handle EIA-608/708 DTV Closed Captioning via HD-SDI input.

I am hoping not to have to buy a dedicated monitor just for this purpose. JVC makes a 17" one for about $3,000, but that seems excessive just for this one little purpose!

Thanks
