During the development of some embedded vbi decoding stuff for mythtv,
I think I found an "offset" of 8 characters between the data in the true 
sliced vbi stream and the embedded stream. 
Note: looks like its the data only, not the ID fields marking telelext, vps, 
wss,etc
Here some output:
modified /utils/vbi.c (grabs /dev/vbi):

See f.i the line containing "NOS-TT". This offset distroys my header and 
magazine info totally to do proper decoding
Yes, I can add a +8 offset to the buffer, but this means that the last line is 
not usable (I will miss 8 chars then).

Could someone familiar with IVTV vbi sources check if this data offset is 
generated in the encoding part?
