Explains how CEA-608 captions are actually extracted from FMP4s by locating SEI NAL unit type 6 inside mdat boxes, mapping those NAL byte offsets to track samples using baseMediaDecodeTime and sample durations, and converting composition time offsets into presentation times; timing comes from end of caption commands inside the 608 payload, so captions get concrete start/end numbers (example segment yields start 1 end 4). Includes the parsing recipe and where to find the fields in movie fragment/track run boxes.
