Historically (only) speaking, this is simply not the case. (Although the speed argument can of course always be made, including here.) > I just don't see a distinctive reason here to do teletext decoding > internally, so that is why I am against adding an internal decoder. I believe that - on the contrary - having an internal decoder (with arguably less features) would be an (in this case huge) advantage. Most people probably agree that HDR is more important than teletext subtitles but I have always considered this a particularly important missing feature.
