The caps that I'm referring to are electrolytic caps, which resemble a battery in construction. According to lore on the internet (which must be true, right?), some Chinese manufacturer(s) stole a new formulation for the chemical inside and got it wrong; the electrolyte deteriorates the cap over time and the caps fail.
Sometimes the cap failure is obvious, meaning they swell at the pressure-relief top or leak. Often times it isn't, but since these are common failures I have found repair info on the internet about many of the video monitors that we use in our office.
