The type of decoder circuitry is sometimes marked on televisions as CCT (Computer-Controlled Teletext), or ECCT (Enhanced Computer-Controlled Teletext). Besides the hardware implementations, it is also possible to decode teletext using a PC and video capture or DVB board, as well as recover historical teletext from self-recorded VHS tapes.
