  • Page 40 Chapter 4 - Operational How-To’s  How to Use Vertical Interval Time Code  Vertical Interval Time Code (VITC) is typically used in transmissions that require time code from the originating source to be preserved. It was originally developed for analog television recording systems, but has new standards for transmitting in digital systems (SMPTE-12M-1 / SMPTE-12M-2).
  • Page 41 ( LPCM ) from an embedded SDI or AES input passed into the egress transport stream ( IP, RF, ASI ). The EN-200 supports four passthru audios on the first four audio inputs. The SDI Matrix and ASI Transport Stream PID configurations allow for custom configurations if required.
  • Page 42 To enable Audio passthru for Audio 1: Step Action On the​ A udio -> Audio 1 in the Web GUI Control Application, configure the "Audio ​ Mode" for <PASSTHRU>. Configure the “Audio Input” for the desired input <AES> or <SDI>. note: If using SDI, select the proper audio pair from the SDI audio matrix.
  • Page 43 Typically, SDI video should be run through a frame synchronizer that is utilizing the same reference as the DE encoder. The Adtec encoder preserves audio and video timing as it is presented. If the audio timing does not match video timing at the inputs, there will be potential line placement errors and/or CRC errors seen on a decoder.
  • Page 44 Understanding Auto Transport Mux Rate  Auto Transport Mux Rate (TMR) is a feature of Adtec EN-Series built with the optional modulator. This feature will automatically configure the overall data rate of the encoder (its TMR;Transport Mux Rate), based upon its Modulator configuration. In other words, when the modulator Transmit configuration is set to 'ENABLED', the encoder’s TMR becomes the...

  • Page 47 How to Use ASI Remux  Terminology: “ASI Remux” refers to the ability for an Adtec EN to accept a Transport Stream (TS) via ASI input, and multiplex the incoming service or services with it’s locally encoded service. The results is that the transport stream output becomes a MPTS containing the services from the ASI input in addition to to the locally encoded service.
  • Page 48 PMT - Program Map Table. This MPEG-2 table specifies PID values for components of programs. The Adtec EN-3X and EN-100 encoders have an ASI input available for the ASI remux feature. Further information can be read about ASI Remux in the ASI Remux article. In some cases, users may want to add custom PID’s from third party generators, such as a DVB Subtitles, into...
  • Page 49 PMT must be modified. A wiring diagram and sample PMT view can be seen in the drawing below. In the example above, a raw PID was sent into the system with no program association. The EN modified the main program PMT, Program 1, to add an additional DVB Subtitle PID entry. As EN encoders do not perform PID conflict resolution at this time, the PID’s inserted into the system should not conflict with other PID’s utilized by the EN-31.
  • Page 50 In the DVB Subtitle example, the PID is 135, DVB Subtitles use stream type 0x06 and a sample DVB descriptor with italian language is 52010259086974611000020002. The user will then need to map the entry into the associated PMT by visiting the Manual PID Mapping tab.

  • Page 52 How to setup a Zixi IP stream on the Adtec Encoders  The Zixi technology can be used to enhance the stability of an IP stream when the network is not in a controlled environment. The use of FEC and latency allows the receiver to request any missing packets and the encoder to resend as needed.
