Foreword
This European Standard (Telecommunications series) has been produced by Joint Technical Committee (JTC)
Broadcast of the European Broadcasting Union (EBU), Comité Européen de Normalisation ELECtrotechnique
(CENELEC) and the European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI).
NOTE: The EBU/ETSI JTC Broadcast was established in 1990 to co-ordinate the drafting of standards in the
specific field of broadcasting and related fields. Since 1995 the JTC Broadcast became a tripartite body
by including in the Memorandum of Understanding also CENELEC, which is responsible for the
standardization of radio and television receivers. The EBU is a professional association of broadcasting
organizations whose work includes the co-ordination of its members' activities in the technical, legal,
programme-making and programme-exchange domains. The EBU has active members in about
60 countries in the European broadcasting area; its headquarters is in Geneva.

Founded in September 1993, the DVB Project is a market-led consortium of public and private sector organizations in
the television industry. Its aim is to establish the framework for the introduction of MPEG-2 based digital television
services. Now comprising over 200 organizations from more than 25 countries around the world, DVB fosters
market-led systems, which meet the real needs, and economic circumstances, of the consumer electronics and the
broadcast industry.

1 Scope
The present document specifies the method by which ITU-R System B Teletext (ITU-R Recommendation BT.653 [3]),
also known as EBU Teletext (see EN 300 706 [4]), may be carried in DVB bitstreams. This transport mechanism is
intended to satisfy the following requirements:
- to support the transcoding of the Teletext data into the Vertical Blanking Interval (VBI) of analogue video.
The transcoded signal should be compatible with existing TV receivers with Teletext decoders;
- the maximum data rate for each Teletext service is equivalent to 16 lines per field so that the service is always
suitable for transcoding into the VBI;
- the transmission mechanism should be capable of transmitting subtitles with accurate timing with respect to
the video (i.e. to within or near frame accuracy).
A more general data transport mechanism for conveying new types of data services is outside the scope of the present
document, but the transport syntax specified here can also be adapted for other data.
