Farhad, One of my close families was the manager of the english section of Iranian Teletext in IRIB. I know they have ordered one of the foreign TV manufactures to design the Farsi teletext system, But I don't know anything about the details. I will ask him and send more details about that project ASAP.

Date: Sun, 29 Sep 2002 15:57:42 +0330 (IRT) Farhad, I don't know about any of the details, but there is already Persian TV teletext in many of the TV boxes made in Iran. Even our SAMSUNG TV which is supposed to be manufactured in Korea supports that. And I guess there are also many Persian TV brands that support it. Anyone who can provide more details on the protocol, charset, etc? I'm sure there are mailing list members who are IRIB employees. roozbeh On Sat, 28 Sep 2002, Farhad Abdolian wrote: > Hi, > I am not sure if it is the right place to ask for this quyestion ot not, > but this is the only group that I am aware of so I give it a try. > > I am working on a home project to make a Farsi TEXT TV hardware and > software, both for sending and receiving.
