product data sheet
For live broadcasting, the MEDIAEDGE
system can utilize the real-time
capabilities of its encoding devices to
transmit live external SD video sources
such as cameras, VCRs, and DVD players,
as well as professional-quality MPEG-1,
MPEG-2, and MPEG-4 (H.264) streams to
multiple clients with minimal delay.
Using this feature, the system can
retransmit television and satellite feeds.
Such content, once MPEG encoded,
may also be recorded for later viewing or
scheduling.
