(remultiplexed) to the ASI inputs on the rear of the unit (DVB ASI IN 1, 2 and 3). NOTE… 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 and combine them into the output stream.
