question : regulating the scroll speed of sub-pages #8

Closed shungerz closed 7 years ago

Pardon my ignorance, but how do you regulate (i.e. control the speed) of sub-pages appearing ? I would like to control the appearance of sub-pages from 7 seconds to 20 seconds instead.

raspi-teletext does not control anything to do with subpages. It is the text stream that you feed raspi-teletext that governs this. VBIT happens to be fixed at 7 seconds which is what I assume you are using as a text stream. VBIT doesn't support variable carousel timing at the moment but I'll have a look at it this week. edit: VBIT does actually support carousel timing. The timing can be set this way: In wxTED Presentation->Properties you can set the carousel time. This time applies to all of the pages. For example the command to set eight seconds is CT,8,T. If you need to set different timings for each page then wxTED doesn't handle this. You can set the individual page timings by using a text editor to add more CT commands for each page.

Thanks, good to know. I'm actually using pyteletext as the streaming solution into raspi-teletext.
