Can anyone explain why my RDR-GX3 gets program data when recording channel five on Sky via scart line in?
I'd love to get this feature for all channels, but only channel 5 seems to manage.
Obviously if I record via analog, I get this sort of data from teletext, but this is on a digital channel sent from the sky box. Oh, and I don't even have channel 5 on analogue.

It's in the analogue teletext header. The Sky box regenerates the analogue teletext signal if the broadcaster sends the right info but Five is about the only channel that still sends this on Sky, unfortunately. RTE also seems to do so, but none of the BBC/ITV/Sky channels do

OK, I guess that answers my query, you did better than Five who couldn't answer it. Cheers.

Given that Five don't know the difference between FTA and FTV on satellite, they probably don't even know that they are sending the teletext info
