[QUOTE="archive10, post: 1014820"] CJ is right. Teletext operates with a specific character set, which exists in different variants. The main difference is the language-specific characters. A bit like codepages on old PCs. On most STBs, the teletext fonts are bitmapped, and this determines what characters appear. If the teletext font in your STB does not have the proper characters for Polish, you will get the lines you write. So you need a different character set for teletext on your STB for this to display properly. In contrast, DVB subtitles are pre-rendered bitmaps, which are merely displayed on a graphics layer.
