I meant that the text can be stripped out of the stream and stored as a .srt
file, which Myth knows how to use, but I don't know if a PS3 would know what
to do with it.
I'm not familiar with the various DVB formats (typical yank attitude, if it
doesn't pertain to me I ignore it).
Hopefully someone more familiar with this can help out.
