Thanks. I'll fetch the source package and rebuild it for sid. I'll
keep this list posted if I need to make changes.

I use Darren's vdr package which already has the required patches.

Well, I'm not deaf, but I like to watch NYPD blue in english (the
french dub is horrible). Unfortunately, the characters in this show
has a wide variety of accents which makes it quite hard to follow for
my french ears ;o) So I need the french subtitles broadcasted by TPS
through teletext. 

I guess that a lot of french people will also need ttxtsubs plugin.

Anyway, count me in to help keep this plugin alive.

Cheers
