wa4chq Posted November 11, 2021 Share Posted November 11, 2021 I'm not sure if this is Linux related. What is this and what is (was) it used for? NMS Ceefax Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
securitybreach Posted November 11, 2021 Share Posted November 11, 2021 Teletext was a text based video system to display information on screens back in the 1970s-80s. This app allows you to use a rpi to do the same with your TV. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wa4chq Posted November 11, 2021 Author Share Posted November 11, 2021 right, saw it was for RPi, but is just an early form of chatting? It's not like "naim", which I used many years ago or is it? I am not planning on doing this, I'm just curious about what it is. Tnx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
securitybreach Posted November 11, 2021 Share Posted November 11, 2021 No, it's for digital signage. It was used by businesses and such before digital ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
