see 
http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/ivtv/devel/17626

which says:
"
 enable embedded teletext (ivtvctl -x 1 -b teletext), then run 
'cat /dev/video0 >/dev/video16' and then run 'util/vbi /dev/vbi4'. vbi4 is 
the device that outputs the embedded VBI data. The PVR-350 is responsible for 
extracting it from the MPEG stream, and the driver transforms it to the same 
format as /dev/vbi0. 
"
the util/vbi executable will do the passthrough here.
note that this (passthrough) is not myth functionality, but just ivtv stuff.
