[vdr] Re: No teletext with AC3overDVB (transfer mode) - Feature request

[Christian Tramnitz <maillist@tramnitz.com>]

Hi,

I have the same problem with two different (DVB-C and DVB-T) cards over 
here: When in transit mode, I cannot receive teletext on my tv.
I asked the mailinglist a while ago and Klaus replied that this is not a 
vdr problem but the dvb-driver currently not supporting reinsertion of 
teletext data (although the hardware should support it afaik).

After that answer I was going to write something to the dvb-list but 
haven't done it yet.
Now that I'm not the only one suffering from that "missing feature" I'll 
go ahead and ask :-)


Happy New Year and best regards,
   Christian
