MTG100 & MTG300 MPEG Generator Service Manual 1Ć1
Product Overview
The MTG100 and MTG300 MPEG Generators store and playback MPEG-2
transport streams that are compliant with ATSC, DVB, and ARIB standards. The
MPEG generators can automatically update the time stamp values of the
transport stream in real time to support long term playout. Table 1-1 lists the
main features of the MPEG generators.
You can output transport streams stored in the MPEG generators to perform the
following tasks:
HEvaluate IRD/STB designs and manufacturing processes
HEvaluate performance of MPEG-2 equipment
HPerform conformance testing of MPEG-2 systems
HProvide substitute signal generation for digital television transmitters
The MTG300 MPEG Generator facilitates complete stress testing by providing
comprehensive capabilities to customize stored transport streams. In addition, the
MTG300 MPEG Generator allows you to effectively monitor receiver operation
by inserting PSI/SI/PSIP tables into the transport stream.
