Digital closed caption corruption reporting

A system comprising:

• a processor;
• and
• a memory storing computer-executable instructions that, in response to being executed by the processor, cause the processor to perform operations comprising:
• ingesting a digital video channel bitstream prior to the digital video channel bitstream being provided to a customer premise equipment and a viewing device,
• locating a digital closed caption flag in the digital video channel bitstream, wherein the digital closed caption flag indicates that a digital closed caption content packet is present within the digital video channel bitstream,
• in response to locating the digital closed caption flag, determining that at least a portion of the digital closed caption content packet cannot be rendered for presentation of closed caption content on a display of the viewing device despite the digital closed caption flag being present, wherein the closed caption content is associated with at least the portion of the digital closed caption content packet from the digital video channel bitstream,
• determining that a closed caption decoder of the viewing device will fail to recognize an error with presenting the closed caption content on the display prior to the closed caption decoder attempting to decode the portion of the digital closed caption content packet, and
• instantiating an alert based on determining that at least the portion of the digital closed caption content packet cannot be rendered to display the closed caption content associated with at least the portion of the digital closed caption content packet.
