Hi,
Recently I added VBI capture support to the Brooktree 848/878 driver
(/dev/vbi0)

This allows Teletext/Videotext capture and viewing.

To complement this I have now added 'vbidecode' and 'videotext' to the
ports
collection /usr/ports/misc

'vbidecode' lets to decode teletext pages and save them to disk as .vtx
files.
There is one file for each page / sub-page

'videotext' lets to view/print/save to GIF and PNG the saved .vtx files.
It also allows background searching of all teletext pages on disk.


Instructions are a bit complicated at this time, but I suggest you read
the
Teletext instructions at
http://telepresence.dmem.strath.ac.uk/bt848


In addition, there is Juha's ASCII .vtx file viewer at
  http://qn-lpr2-98.quicknet.inet.fi:22/stuff/vtxview.c


Good luck
Roger
