TG-130 Transport Stream Recorder/Processor/Player0 pages
The TG-130 is a versatile MPEG-2 Transport Stream processor, recorder and player with an integradedDVB-T tuner that allows TS capturing in real time.It can record a transport stream continuously for several minutes and then play it back later at pleasure. Therecorded streams can also be processed to create others TS transport streams with different content.
The TG-130 is a useful equipment to work in the field where maybe it is not possible to find electricityavailable.
V).The same data are sent to both outputs atthe same time. The ASI uses a BNC typeconnector while the SPI uses a DB25.The TG-130 in combination with a digitalmodulator, such as MO-170 for DVB-T forinstance, becomes a highly flexible andaffordable digital broadcast signal simula-tor.
The TG-130 Data Compact Flash isrecommended for applications like captu-
res in the field where the equipment couldbe subject to knocks or vibrations. As Ithas no mechanical moving parts, it offers
an improved longer term reliability. The Transport Streams can contain asingle service or multiple ones so that theuser can have full flexibility during the test
phases of digital set top box or iDTV'sdesign, manufacture or service. Services included in the transport streamcan be audio, video or data in MPEG-2 formats and can correspond to free to air or encrypted programs in standard defi-nition ( SDTV ) or high definition ( HDTV ).The TG-130 comes with preloaded testtransport streams that can be selectedusing the device front panel controls.Thanks to the PC computer interface and
the web server functions the users canalso edit or tailor the transport streams totheir specific requirements.
The TG-130 is a Lithium-Ion batterypowered equipment, ideal for real DVB-T
signal capture.A Transport Stream is a sequence ofbytes containing audio, video and data. The TG-130 contains software programsto play, record, analyze, demultiplex andbuild Transport Streams. The TG-130 has a hard disk with twopartitions. One partition contains theoperating system and the software. Theother partition is where the Transport
Stream files are stored. The equipment
has two outputs and one input: one ASIoutput (Asynchronous Serial Interface),one SPI output (Synchronous Parallel In-
terface) and one ASI input. It also has aRF input (from 35 to 100 dB >
