The service the channel already has
Teletext travels with the OTT variant instead of stopping at the broadcast feed.

Teletext Extractor
Teletext as part of OTT services
Linear channels have carried teletext for years, yet the OTT version of the same channel usually leaves it behind. Teletext Extractor takes those pages straight off the broadcast feed and serves them next to the OTT stream in a web-compatible form.

Nothing to re-author
The pages come out of the signal you already distribute, so there is no second editorial workflow.
Web-ready, not a broadcast artefact
An API and an HTML renderer, so a web player can show the pages as they aired.

The problem this solves
When a linear channel is prepared for OTT distribution, video and audio are usually all that make it through the pipeline. Teletext pages often are not passed on - not because they are missing from the source signal, but because the OTT delivery path has no place for them in a form a web player or HTML client can use.
The result is an incomplete digital product: the channel is available online, but without the teletext service that is an integral part of how the same channel works on television. Viewers lose information that already exists in the signal, and the platform cannot offer an equivalent OTT version without rebuilding that service separately.
The pages are already in the signal. They stop where the OTT pipeline begins.
Who this is for
Broadcaster
You are launching or extending an OTT version of your linear channels, and teletext currently stops at the broadcast stage.
Telco or platform operator
You package third-party linear channels for OTT and want the teletext those feeds already carry to reach the web player.
How it works
- 1
Take the broadcast feed
Receive the linear MPEG-TS stream over UDP, RTP, SRT or RIST.
- 2
Extract the teletext
Process the stream and pull the relevant TTI data out of it.
- 3
Track what changed
Compare each page against the one already held, so only real updates travel further.
- 4
Store the pages
Write the current state of every page and subpage to the database.
- 5
Render it in the browser
Serve the pages over an API and draw them next to the OTT stream in HTML.
What makes it different
Most OTT packaging treats teletext as a broadcast-only artefact and leaves the digital channel without it, or replaces it with a separately produced track. Teletext Extractor starts from the opposite assumption: the teletext already present in the linear feed should become part of the OTT variant of that channel. The job is not to regenerate what aired, but to carry those pages into a web-ready experience so the online stream can present the same information the broadcast already has.
Where it stands
Current status & next steps
Ready to pilotReviewed 1 September 2026
Teletext Extractor is ready to pilot. Extraction runs against real broadcast signals and the demo on this page renders live teletext pages in the browser, the same HTML client an OTT player would use.
The demo is a snapshot of pages taken from broadcast feeds rather than a live overlay on an OTT stream. What we are still settling with partners is which teletext pages matter most for an OTT offer, and how they should sit next to the video in a player UI.
