The truly correct answer is yes, you can access it, but it will be as a series of images and textfiles in a /tmp directory... the DSMCC plugin for VDR will decode the MHEG5 carousels that 'digital teletext' is broadcast using... However, there is currently no integrated way to render these files to an on-screen TV display via VDR. Think of it as saving a webpage to hard disk, but having no web browser to view them. There are a few Java-based MHEG5 decoders on the 'Net which are free to use, and integrating oneof these into a VDR plugin is on the TODO list for the DSMCC plugin developers, but time is always the problem :) So, if adverts for holidays and a crappy TV guide are very important, then you'll need to stick to using your Windows software :) Cheers, Gavin. -- Info: To unsubscribe send a mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe linux-dvb" as subject.
