Hi, I will have a look ASAP.
I will be in Paris next week, so I will have to program in between other
things happening...

I am using teletext (in The Netherlands) to extract financial data, like
stock prices.
http://www.panteltje.demon.nl/xkrs/ has an X display that connects via iic
to the SAA5246 Videotex chip.
This was based on an old article in the German magazine CT.
Now I have to look if can can get the data from the PES stream, I have read
all the docu from www.etsi I could get on this subject, but that is not very
clear from a programmer point of view.

I have not released the stock price extraction code for commercial reasons.
There are in fact 2 programs, or 3 rather, xkrs (the X GUI), krs does
parsing of the teletext pages, and xkra the x financial program (GPL).

krs is not released, but if anyone is interested in extracting stock prices,
let me know, I may release it after all, similar software for windows cost
about 500 $.

Now if I could connect to the PES stream, all this software should be
working.
I need to know filter ID bytes and things like that I think.
Regards
Jan
