I am using Direct X 8.0 to capture text from Line 21 of Video. I can capture the text to an avi file but I need help form anyone who may know how to create a custom filter that would take the text out of the avi file and put it into an ASCII text file.

Thanks for the help.

I had to do something similar, I we extracting teletext. Basically I used some hardware specific to the task, in this case a pelican decoder card.
 
I was wondering if you guys may be able to help me. Basically, I have been using graphedit (dump filter) to create line21 raw data files from DVD playbacks. I then am able to use a program called ccparser to convert this rawdata file to subtitle formatted text file. Then I can go ahead and author the subtitles with my DVD. Now...I have been wanting to do a similar thing for TV or VHS capture. I am able to use my TV tuner to generate a line21 raw data file, but am unable to parse the file into a familiar text format. Do you guys have any ideas how I could convert the decoded or undecoded closed captions (from TV or VHS) to a subtitle based format (or any other format which could be authored into a DVD)? I really appreciate any help :) Thanks a million
