DiviTrack Features

DiviTrackIP Support

DiviTrackIP statistical multiplexing provides high-performance video compression when
multiple channels share a specified bandwidth. The system maintains the overall pool
bandwidth at a constant bit rate while allocating to individual channels the optimum number
of bits on a frame-by-frame basis, driven by picture complexity information from the
LookAhead™ analysis. By assigning priorities, you can specify channels that must maintain a
high quality when stress on the system increases.
The Electra 9200 encoder works in conjunction with NMX and a ProStream™ 1000 to
support DiviTrackIP. The ProStream 1000 analyzes the complexity of all incoming video
streams and sends messages to the encoders through the IP network. All streams from an
Electra 9200 encoder must be sent to the same ProStream 1000. MPTS (multiple STC clocks
per chassis) is also supported.
Table 4–9 provides DiviTrack IP pool specifications. See the NMX help for information about
configuring DiviTrackIP.
