Extracting teletext with the CLI

[David]

Is it possible to set all options needed for teletext extraction from the CLI or in the ini-file?

Is it possible to set FileterControl options from the CLI, like the following option:

And can you set Collection Properties from the CLI, like the following:

If this isn't possible, is there some way to save these options to the .ini file and have them loaded?

I found the answer, for anyone interested in the same logic.
Steps on Linux:

1. Create an .ini-file where you find it convenient (I keep them in the same directory as ProjectX)
2. vi 777.ini
3. Paste the content below in the 777.ini file

# Project-X INI
# ProjectX 0.91.0.00 / 31.03.2011

# Application
Application.ActiveDirectory=/tmp/ts
Application.Agreement=1
Application.Language=en
Application.LookAndFeel=javax.swing.plaf.metal.MetalLookAndFeel
Application.OutputDirectories.1=/tmp/ts
Application.OutputDirectory=[res] same location as 1st file in coll.

# CollectionPanel
CollectionPanel.CutMode=0

# ExportPanel
ExportPanel.Streamtype.Ac3Audio=0
ExportPanel.Streamtype.MpgVideo=0
ExportPanel.Streamtype.PcmAudio=0
ExportPanel.Streamtype.Subpicture=0
ExportPanel.Streamtype.Vbi=0
ExportPanel.WriteOptions.writeVideo=0

# MainPanel
MainPanel.ConversionMode=0

# SubtitlePanel
SubtitlePanel.SubtitleExportFormat=SRT
SubtitlePanel.rebuildPTS=1
SubtitlePanel.TtxPage1=777

1. Start ProjectX from the comman-line with the settings from the .ini-file
2. java -jar ProjectX -ini 777.ini /tmp/ts/20170202_390219.ts
3. No Gui will be started but you will see a lot of output to stdout and eventually when ProjextX is done parsing your recording you should see the .srt-file in the same directory as the .ts-file
4. /tmp/ts/20170202_390219[777].srt

I have not yet figured out how to change the output-name of the .srt-file (I don't like getting the [777] part in the file-name) this is added automatically by ProjectX.

Note that this .ini-file is for teletext on Page: 777, if your recording uses another page, change it accordingly in attribute:

• SubtitlePanel.TtxPage1=777

A couple of other things to note. I'm extracting teletext from an HD-broadcast with missing timestamps in the teletext-stream. To compensate for this I need to sync the text with the audio-stream to get correct timestamps. I do this with two settings:

1. I set "stream-types" to process both: audio-data and the teletext stream
2. I add attribute: SubtitlePanel.rebuildPTS=1

Note! If you have correct timestamps within the teletext-stream itself you may not need these options, saving you time by not parsing the audio-file.
