The teletext module works great, but in some setups it's almost impossible to read the text.
I have made a patch that draws all text in a 680x602px window and lets the GUI scale it to screen instead of trying to adapt the font etc to the screen size. I also changed the font to Lucida Console.

Also it corrects how the text is aligned on screen with regards to skin settings. See attached screenshots. Since I am using an old CRT TV I have to compensate a lot for overscan.

Attached is also a zipfile containing the updated TvPlugin.dll for testing purposes.
Edit: Removed the binaries since latest build includes a similar fix to avoid confusion

[QUOTE="jblomb, post: 362845, member: 51023"] The teletext module works great, but in some setups it's almost impossible to read the text.
