You are probably talking about teletext, a 20-year old design that got some attention in Europe but not much in USA. There is software already that decodes teletext, but I doubt many broadcasters in USA transmit it (since not many TV sets can receive it, and not many typical TV owners would appreciate the feature even if it were there). http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=teletext+linux Dmitri
