Filter function for the activated input transport stream (TS IN) to remove unwanted services (programs). The function is only available if 

in “General Selection“ the field “ASI Main Input

Flt-DROP & MUX“ is selected and enabled with “Send“. 

Provided is a table of all present services (programs) at the input. The selected services will be removed from the transport stream.

Fig. 15: Open drop-table. All present services at the ASI-IN are displayed. The marked services in the column “Drop“ are not forwarded.

Cable Equalizer:

 [OFF, ON] 

 

Using longer cables to fed in the signal, an equalizer can be switched on that input.

Source of Intern TS: 

[Main ASI-IN/ ASI-Out]

 

Selective function for internal signal feed for transcoder/ decoder operation mode.

(EMA 308, analogue input signal)

Program Name:

 

 

Assign a name for each imported or transformed program. The program name is displayed on the terminal equipment (TV). 

 

The program name must be unique and may exist only once in a cascade of encoders. The maximum length is 16 characters.

Program Language:

 [deu, eng, ...] 

 

Identifies the language for the audio data stream and teletext. It should correspond to ISO 639-2 [4].

Video System:

 [PAL/ SECAM (50 Hz), NTSC (60 Hz), OFF (Digital Radio), OFF (Audio Channel)] 

 

Sets the type of the input video signal. The following signal types are processed: at 50 Hz/ 25 fps - PAL (B, D, G, H, I, N, Nc)  

 

and SECAM; at 60 Hz/ 30 fps - NTSC (J, M, 4.43) and PAL (M, 60). In the “OFF-Radio” setting, the video signal is ignored and

 

a digital radio channel is generated. With the “Table Extension“ this can be assigned to other encoders as an additional audio 

 channel.

Video Format:

 [SD 576i/ 480i, HD 720p (1280x720), HD 1080i (1920x1080)]

 

The chosen configuration must match the parameters of the encoder input signals.

Aspect Ratio (SD only!):

 [4:3, 16:9, Use WSS] 

 

Set, how the video input signal for the MPEG header should be interpreted. „Use WSS“ evaluates only „16:9 Fullformat“. 

 

Anything else is streamed in a 4:3 format. Requirement is VPS-WWS=WSS or VPS+WSS

System Bitrate:

 [1000..6000..15000 kbps] 

 

Here the bandwidth is established for audio, video and table data in the relevant encoder (slot). The value is only an upper  

 

limit. The bit rate actually generated will be slightly slower and will not be absolutely constant.
