Systems and methods for using a program schedule to facilitate modifying closed-captioning text
First Claim
1. A method comprising:
- a computing device selecting a media program;
the computing device accessing closed-captioning text that corresponds to the media program;
the computing device accessing a program schedule of the selected media program, wherein the program schedule comprises first text, and wherein the program schedule is used to produce the media program by coordinating the use of various media content items in the media program;
the computing device selecting second text from among the first text, wherein the selected second text is different from the closed-captioning text;
the computing device using the selected second text to (i) identify a candidate misspelled-term within the closed-captioning text, and (ii) identify a candidate replacement-term for the candidate misspelled-term; and
the computing device outputting, via a user interface, a prompt requesting a command to modify the closed-captioning text by replacing the identified candidate misspelled-term with the identified candidate replacement-term.

Abstract
In one aspect, an example method involves: a computing device selecting a media program; the computing device accessing first data representing closed-captioning text that corresponds to the media program; accessing second data representing a program schedule of the selected media-program, wherein the program schedule comprises first text; the computing device selecting second text from among the first text; the computing device using the selected second-text to (i) identify a candidate misspelled-term within the closed-captioning text, and (ii) identify a candidate replacement-term for the candidate misspelled-term; and the computing device outputting, via a user interface, a prompt requesting a command to modify the closed-captioning text by replacing the identified candidate misspelled-term with the identified candidate replacement-term.

9. A method comprising:
-
a computing device selecting a media program; the computing device accessing closed-captioning text that corresponds to the media program; the computing device accessing a program schedule of the selected media program, wherein the program schedule comprises first text, and wherein the program schedule is used to produce the media program by coordinating the use of various media content items in the media program; the computing device selecting second text from among the first text, wherein the selected second text is different from the closed-captioning text; the computing device using the selected second text to (i) identify a candidate misspelled-term within the closed-captioning text, and (ii) identify a candidate replacement-term for the candidate misspelled-term; and the computing device generating and storing the closed-captioning text modified to have the identified candidate misspelled-term replaced with the identified candidate replacement-term. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14)

15. A non-transitory computer-readable medium having stored thereon program instructions that when executed cause a computing device to perform a set of acts comprising:
-
selecting a media program; accessing closed-captioning text that corresponds to the media program; accessing a program schedule of the selected media program, wherein the program schedule comprises first text, and wherein the program schedule is used to produce the media program by coordinating the use of various media content items in the media program; selecting second text from among the first text, wherein the selected second text is different from the closed-captioning text; using the selected second text to (i) identify a candidate misspelled-term within the closed-captioning text, and (ii) identify a candidate replacement-term for the candidate misspelled-term; and outputting, via a user interface, a prompt requesting a command to modify the closed-captioning text by replacing the identified candidate misspelled-term with the identified candidate replacement-term. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
