Page 60: Function Of Remultiplexer
Options and Upgrades 3.5.4 Function of Remultiplexer It is the function of the Remultiplexer to combine the locally generated host services with the externally supplied input services, connected via ASI inputs to the rear of the unit. If the Service ID (DVB) or Program Number (ATSC), PIDs or service names, of two or more of the services clash, the Remultiplexer can remap the Service ID or program number, remap PIDs, and alter the service names to resolve the clash.
Page 61: Using The Remultiplexer
NOTE… It is possible to remultiplex any DVB or ATSC compliant transport stream but at the time of publication, only transport streams generated by TANDBERG Television equipment are guaranteed to work when fed to the Remultiplexing module. The equipment will automatically detect the services on these inputs. The list of detected services is displayed in the Setup/Mux Menu.
Page 62: What To Do If Overflow Occurs
Options and Upgrades The easiest way to configure the bit-rates to avoid overflow, is as follows: 1. Divide the 188 byte output bit-rate of the primary (master) remultiplexing unit, (this can be found in the Setup/Mux/Remux Module/Output Bit-rate), by the number of contributing services (including the primary service).

Page 232 Glossary B3ZS Bipolar with Three Zero Substitution: A method of eliminating long zero strings in a transmission. It is used to ensure a sufficient number of transitions to maintain system synchronisation when the user data stream contains an insufficient number of 1s to do so. B3ZS is the North American equivalent of the European HDB3. Backward Compatibility Refers to hardware or software that is compatible with earlier versions.
Page 233 Glossary Compression Reduction in the number of bits used to represent the same information. For the purposes of a broadcast system, it is the process of reducing digital picture information by discarding redundant portions of information that are not required when reconstituting the picture to produce viewing clarity. Compression allows a higher bite-rate to be transmitted through a given bandwidth.

It also contains the physical interface to the subscriber’s viewing card. International Electrotechnical Committee. Intermediate Frequency: Usually refers to the 70 MHz or 140 MHz output of the Modulator in cable, satellite and terrestrial transmission applications.
Page 236 MCPC Multiple Channels Per Carrier. Multiplex Element Manager: A GUI based control system, part of the range of TANDBERG Television compression system control element products. The evolution 5000 MEM holds a model of the system hardware. Using this model, it controls the individual system elements to configure the output multiplexes from the incoming elementary streams.
Page 237 Glossary Nanometre: a unit of length equal to one thousand millionth (10 ) of a metre. NTSC National Television Systems Committee: The group, which developed analogue standards used in television broadcast systems in the United States. Also adopted in other countries (e.g. Mexico, Canada, Japan). This system uses 525 picture lines and a 59.97 Hz field frequency.
Page 238 Random Access Memory: A volatile storage device for digital data. Data may be written to, or read from, the device as often as required. When power is removed, the data it contains is lost. Remote Authorization System: A TANDBERG TV proprietary public-key encryption system used to prevent unauthorized viewing of a TV programme or programmes.
Page 239 Glossary Set-Top Box: A box that sits on top of a television set and is the interface between the home television and the cable TV company. New technologies evolving for set-top boxes are video-on-demand, video games, educational services, database searches, and home shopping. The cable equivalent of the IRD. System Time Table (ATSC).

To overlay the material with a logo, the logo must first be downloaded into the equipment using the Ethernet TFTP protocol. Once this has been done the logo can be enabled or disabled. Contact TANDBERG Television for further details. Summary of Features Up to 13 logos can be overlaid onto the active video.

Page 283: Adding Transparency Manually
Creating and Downloading a Logo Osd Creator uses a colour palette with a maximum of 256 entries. Each pixel in the image is mapped to an entry in the palette, which holds a value for the red, green and blue and transparency component. The transparency (or mix) is treated as a colour component, so for two colours with identical red, green and blue values, but different transparency levels, two entries will be generated in the palette.
Page 284: Editing The Palette
Creating and Downloading a Logo Click the Key File toolbar button. Select the key file. The inactive area of the image should now be transparent (background-coloured). Change the background colour to verify that the correct area is transparent. Editing the Palette The palette may be displayed alongside the image by clicking the Show/Hide Palette toolbar button.

Page 309 Use of Remux Card in ATSC Remux Card In ATSC With Internal PSIP The Encoder automatically remuxes ATSC streams arriving at its inputs, as in DVB. The Encoder uses the PAT (Program Association Table) and PMT (Program Map Table) to work out all the associated PIDs (Packet Identifier), and attempt to extract the short name, the long name, and the Service Type from the VCT (Virtual Channel Table).
Page 310 Use of Remux Card in ATSC In this configuration the Encoder generates the PAT, CAT and PMT for all programs but it is the responsibility of the user to provide all the PSIP for the associated programs. Any programs present on the same input as the external PSIP are not detected and are not referenced in the PAT.
