RedHat Linux 7.3, stock RedHat 2.4.18 kernel, Athlon 650MHz CPU. After using the old driver software with my Hauppauge DVB-T card for some months I decided it was time to investigate the "NEWSTRUCT" driver (now the default of course). I downloaded the driver and dvbtools from CVS today and buil

Is any work being done to extract Digital Teletext from UK DVB-T broadcasts? I can obtain and understand parts of the data stream but writing a MHEG-5 decoder from scratch looks a daunting task, and there don't appear to be any open source products available. Dave -- Info: To unsubscribe se
