• an instruction receiver operable to receive a closed caption modification instruction and to output an image modification signal based on the closed caption modification instruction;
• and
• a closed caption modifying unit which generates modified closed caption display data,
• wherein said video combining unit is further operable, based on the image modification signal, to generate a second content package based on the first image display data and the modified closed caption display data,
• said output port is further operable to output the second content package to the viewing device to display a second video image over a second period of time, and
• the second content package is generated by locating the first image display data corresponding to the first period of time which is previous to the second period of time, and the second video image includes the first image display data and the modified closed caption display, and
