EBU subtitles.

Hi @EricBerendsen ,

I'm the gay that has suggested to reuse part of your code. Please, let me to explain the idea: As the current DVBInspector implementation has included the decoding of the TELETEXT SUBTITLES, and the project is writen in Java (and very good architectured), the question is: You think it will be possible to adapt an encapsulated Java class with this functionality? Other people in the ExoPlayer project will do the work to use this class in the player. But two questions remains: First, if you agree with the idea of "reuse" some of your code for this objective. Second, if you can help (not much) to define this concrete reusable class or not.

Please, explain your opinion. I don't want to be rude or pressure you to accept this idea. I'm not affiliated in any sense with the ExoPlayer project. I'm only a user/developer that I suggested to @a4x4kiwi to reuse part of your code, as hi has integrated initially some support in the ExoPlayer project.

I hope this can help.
Regards.

I have no problems with re-use of (parts of) DVB Inspector code in other open source projects.

The code for teletext support might be a good starting point for integrating EBU subtitles into Googles Exoplayer app. However it will require some major changes. DVB Inspector first loads the entire teletext stream into memory before presenting any info and or images. That will not work for a media player, so a complete change of structure is needed.

I think I would not be the best person to create a module for exoplayer. I don't know anything about android, or mediaplayers. Of course I am willing to help and answer any questions (If I can remember, that part of the code is almost 9 years old now....).

Thanks Eric,

I (we) appreciate being able to reuse code.
Yes, It will require quite some integration for real-time processing.

All the best.
