Also the user will need Windows media Center, seems that only that supports VBI of any sort, closed captioning, teletext, and ability to configure things fully on the chip (or if anyone has another way to setup things like this outside media center in Windows please let me know).
The application I found which can read from the cards registers, so far, is "WinDriver", a 30 day eval allows you to do this, meant for driver development of hardware under windows, but has a simple read/write memory option in the Define and test resources option for a pci device. So let me know if you have media center, I'll let you know how to get things setup to check some memory addresses/registers, also see if you can run CC or other VBI viewing first.
