Test Equipment: MPEG-2 and H.264 Transport Stream Generators with Gig/E IP or ASI In and Out

MPEG-2 or H.264 Transport Stream Recorder/ Player Application with IP Input and Output for Continuous Playback and/or Capture of Transport Streams from a "Bouquet" by Time or by Size (Bytes). Provisioned for Transport Streams to be Sent to Single or Multiple UDP/IP, TCP/IP and RTP/IP (record only) Addresses. Includes a Simple TS Analyzer that Recognizes SI and PSIP tables, a Software Based TS Decoder, and Miscellaneous Transport streams for Test Purposes Only. (Custom TS Available.) This is a Stand Alone Application that Works with Most Any IP Port and Requires No DVEO Hardware. Requires Dual Channel Copper or Fiber TCP/IP card.

One license per machine no matter how many instances are running.

Cost Effective, Always On, MPEG-2 or H.264 Transport Stream Playout Server with ASI Playout. (Transport Streams Originate from the On-Board Flash Card Reader.) Suitable for Both Broadcast and Digital Signage. Ideal “Install and Forget” Device to Install at Transmitters, Etc., as a Signal Source. Ships with Encoded Color Bars and Video Clip of San Diego.
