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.
