The end of my local.start file contains:
echo "Initializing MPEG decoder..."
/bin/dd if=/dev/video0 of=/dev/video16 bs=65k count=25
echo "Resetting VBI options..."
/usr/local/bin/ivtvctl -x 1 -w cc -b cc
this is almost exactly what i did to get the captioning to work
on live tv and on recordings. i had found the whole post-install
method in the ivtv file in /etc/modules.d/ didnt work for some
reason. i dont have the dd of video0 to 16 though. is that
necessary? mine seems to work fine except for my problem
with the captions turning off while skipping ahead.
i think ill have to take a crack at the code and see if i can get it
working. it just seems that when you stop the mpeg stream it turns
off the captioning, and forgets to turn it back on when the stream
starts back up. ehh *shrug*
