Okay... Assuming for a moment that teletext code worked as it should,
how hard would it be to generate Mplayer subtitle files from a captured
stream? I ask mostly because I currently have limited diskspace and
recordings cannot linger in MythTV for all eternity.

Okay. Nice -- noting the 'intended' I assume you didn't get that in
here? Does that mean that it simply toggles on/off the first 'page' it
found?

Aiee!! :) - To be honest, I hope someone with actual C/C++ skills
volunteers soon, but I am not afraid to at least look at it and prod
around. I'm just not sure I'd really know what I was doing... :-/
