The Zapping VBI library, in short ZVBI, provides functions to capture and
|
|
decode VBI data. It is written in plain ANSI C with few dependencies on other
|
|
tools and libraries, licensed under GPL.
|
|
|
|
The vertical blanking interval (VBI) is an interval in a television signal
|
|
that temporarily suspends transmission of the signal for the electron gun to
|
|
move back up to the first line of the television screen to trace the next
|
|
screen field.
|
|
|
|
The vertical blanking interval can be used to carry data, since anything sent
|
|
during the VBI would naturally not be displayed; various test signals, closed
|
|
captioning, and other digital data can be sent during this time period.
