I just found a note about supporting VPS in DVB, but forgot where I found it :( It is named "DVB: Standard for conveying VBI data in DVB bitstreams" / "DVB document A056" from May 2000. But I want ETS 300 231, what is about VPS because A056 only points to such docu for more info about bitstream structure of VPS signal. And I know that our national provider Czechlink transmits the VPS in TV channels. /Honza -- Info: To unsubscribe send a mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe linux-dvb" as subject.
