@themagpi Ooh, well now that I know this is a thing, here's the second Teletext Pi setup I've put together.

Raspberry Pi 1 from eBay (but somehow new in box/bag), a caravan TV given to me by a neighbour, and VBIT software by @peterkvt80.

(It also suits me down to the ground that you were a day late...I'm at least a day late for most things...I was nearly a day late for #Teletext50! 😂 )

Attached: 2 images I didn't get around to mentioning before #Teletext50, that I feel honoured for #Nemetext to have been added to the services available via the software you can use to get Teletext on your own TV using a Raspberry Pi. I'll post a link in the replies to a guide that shows you how!

Watch all the artworks by the global #teletext community here: https://yle.fi/aihe/tekstitv?P=840 – or on your TV if you have Yle.

By the way, I have since been told that subtitling came to teletext one year later (in 1975).

Ever wondered how I make Level 2.5 #teletext pages?

QTeletextMaker was demonstrated at the #teletext50 event in Cambridge. Live-streamed courtesy of @JamieNemeth on Twitch TV, where alas the recordings only stay up for 14 days so it'll disappear about 6th October. A more permanent YouTube re-edit may appear sometime after...

TOMORROW, MONDAY MORNING - #teletext50 will be on @bbcbreakfast, with Mort Smith, Ceefax’s first sub-editor who was there at the start, and (hopefully) me being interviewed by @timmuffett. Set your videos :-) (pic @thatothercarlos)
Got home ok from #teletext50 - what a great weekend, with lots of expert panellists, brilliant techies and talented artists. And cake! Here’s a picture of me with a part of the first digital Ceefax computer, Esmeralda

LaserDisc had the Bandwidth to carry #Teletext.
Not just Subtitles or Closed Captioning, proper Teletext.
The last Released Title I’m aware of was Jurassic Park, 2 Disc, CAV Box Set from Pioneer. It even has a Test Page.

Happy #teletext50 !!!

Here is a piece of art I submitted to celebrate the 50th anniversary of Teletext.
