We are planning to remove MythTV support for CEA-608 based teletext<br>
captions/subtitles, as of the 0.27 release. That is to say, 0.26 will<br>
be the last release with CEA-608 teletext support.<br>
<br>
Note that this has nothing to do with DVB teletext that is commonly<br>
used in Europe. It also has nothing (or at least little) to do with<br>
VBI-based CEA-608 closed captions which are provided by U.S.<br>
broadcasters and set-top box analog output.<br>
<br>
The main reason for removal is that there doesn't seem to be any<br>
content currently produced with such subtitles, and hasn't been for a<br>
very long time, and so the code to maintain decoding and rendering<br>
support is all guesswork that complicates the rest of the code.<br>
<br>
If anyone has samples containing CEA-608 teletext captions, or has<br>
other concerns about this decision, please let me know.<br>
