Such devices are -usually implemented as microcontrollers with serial interface -(I\ :sup:`2`\ C) and could be found on old TV cards, dedicated Teletext -decoding cards and home-brew devices connected to the PC parallel port. - -The Teletext API was designed by Martin Buck. It was defined in the -kernel header file ``linux/videotext.h``, the specification is available -from -`ftp://ftp.gwdg.de/pub/linux/misc/videotext/ <ftp://ftp.gwdg.de/pub/linux/misc/videotext/>`__. -(Videotext is the name of the German public television Teletext -service.) - -Eventually the Teletext API was integrated into the V4L API with -character device file names ``/dev/vtx0`` to ``/dev/vtx31``, device -major number 81, minor numbers 192 to 223. - -However, teletext decoders were quickly replaced by more generic VBI -demodulators and those dedicated teletext decoders no longer exist. For -many years the vtx devices were still around, even though nobody used -them. So the decision was made to finally remove support for the -Teletext API in kernel 2.6.37. - -Modern devices all use the :ref:`raw <raw-vbi>` or -:ref:`sliced` VBI API. |
