Start downloading the digital TV text content for a channel, as identified by the channel's service ID, into the folder:. Make a folder to save the downloaded data: mkdir bbconescot. Tune into a TV station using it's name: tzap -x "BBC ONE Scot". Compile the RB-Download executable, by running make. Download the redbutton-download software as a zip archive and extract it somewhere convenient. Each line of the file is a different channel, although some are radio stations. The important parts are the first section (before the first ':'), which identifies the channel name (case sensitive) e.g: "BBC ONE Scot", and the last section, which identifies the service ID for the channel, e.g: "4220". You should see something similar to:īBC ONE Scot:522000000:INVERSION_AUTO:BANDWIDTH_8_MHZ:FEC_2_3:FEC_AUTO:QAM_64:TRANSMISSION_MODE_8K:GUARD_INTERVAL_1_32:HIERARCHY_NONE:101:102:4220 Inspect a single line of this nf file. Scan /usr/share/dvb/dvb-legacy/dvb-t/ > ~/.tzap/nf Replace with the file for your local digital TV transmitter. Scan for channels, saving the list of channels in a place where other utilities can find them. (Leaving this up to you, as setup varies wildly with different hardware / software variants). Setup a computer with a TV tuner card. 
(There's also RB-Creator, which is not relevant for archiving). Think wayback machine, but for digital TV text. The software chosen for this archival attempt is RedButton, which includes two parts: RB-Download to download live data from a digital TV source, and RB-Browser, to allow the files downloaded by RB-Download to be "played back". Help is greatly appreciated as a separate TV tuner is needed for each channel. User:Betamax is attempting to preserve a representative sample of the service in its final weeks / months.
