14.2. Video Text Support

Use alevt to browse video text pages. Start the application with Multimedia+Video+alevt or at the command line with alevt.

The application saves all the pages of the selected station just activated with motv. Browse pages by entering the desired page number or by clicking a page number. Move forward or backward through the pages by clicking << or >>, located in the lower window margin.

Recent versions of motv and its successor xawtv4 include their own video text viewer applications: mtt (motv) and mtt4 (xawtv4). mtt4 even supports DVB cards.
