VBI Digital Teletext

Usage

We've tried to make the usage of VBI teletext as similar to accepted operation with current devices as we can.

If you right-click in the DigiTV window to bring up the context menu, you'll see an Enable Digtal Text menu item. If this is checked it means you have teletext switched on and you will automatically receive the text information if the channel you're viewing has text available.

The option above it (Digital Text Channel) lists all of the teletext-only channels that you currently have tuned.


Teletext is always switched off when you start DigiTV, ie, the setting is not persisted between sessions.

Tip: You can also toggle between Teletext On and Off using the T key on the keyboard.
While your teletext page is being loaded, you'll see Loading appear in the bottom right corner of the window. Once the initial page is fully displayed you can navigate around it using the remote control to select page numbers, or the arrow keys to move through the pages incrementally.

Hitting the OK button on the remote (Enter Key on the keyboard) will toggle between black background, and video background for the text.

Tip: Hitting the Text button on the Nebula remote control (T on the keyboard) will start text on a page, and pressing Text/T again will stop it.
