For what it's worth: I'm working on a small project to produce .srt subtitle files based on teletext subtitling. Of course while simultaneously capturing the accompanying mpeg-stream... Things are looking quite good, I've been watching my first home produced DVD with subtitles... made from an episode of Ray Mears survival program on the BBC.
Point is: VBI works good enough for my typical application. There are still some issues to solve, i.e. I have to do a "cat /dev/video0 > something" and stop it again before I start my own program to get the capturing started from within my own program, so there's probably some initialisation to be done somewhere, but that's going to be solved, no doubt :-) As soon as it can stand on it's own feet, I will release the sources for my program to the public. (Big thanks to Hans and Martin for pointing me in the right direction and giving help&advise) Regards, Johan Duinkerken. ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: NEC IT Guy Games.
