I dont get it. This should be signaled by any number of TTXT packets.
X/28/0 format1
X/28/1
X/28/4
M/29/0
M/29/1
M/29/4

If none of these set the appropriate value, then the encoder doesn't  
even support proper Level1 teletext. I'd rather believe that either  
zvbi implementation is incomplete, or that the encoder sets an  
incorrect value...

Relevant here is C.4 of the TTXT spec it seems.
