Professional Grade, Superb Quality, MPEG-2 Encoder. Reliable, Remotely Manageable, MPEG-2 HD and SD Video Encoder with SMPTE 292M HD-SDI, SMPTE 259M SD-SDI inputs and DVB ASI and IP output. Compliant with all North American ATSC encoding standards and all ATSC Broadcast Resolutions. Supports Dolby® AC-3 and EIA-608 and EIA-708 closed captioning and static and dynamic PSIP. Rental includes setup assistance.

Real time, 1 RU, quick starting, embedded Linux® based, remotely manageable, auto detection of SD or HD (SDI), H.264/AVC Encoder and Multi Stream Transcoder relying on a Blackmagic SDI/HD-SDI input card and a "minimal" Linux® kernel (residing in a flash memory device) that is Highly Ruggedized and Task Optimized, coupled to a friendly GUI that can be run from anywhere.

The MultiStreamer DIG/IP™ runs on an Asus® high performance motherboard with an advanced Intel Multicore I5 4 Core processor. Multiple IP Transport Streams can be produced with most any industry standard "protocols" like UDP, RTP, or IGMP and “Wrappers” such as HLS, RTMP, RTSP, etc. Audio support is for AAC, AC-3 pass through, Ogg Vorbis, optional MP3, or optional “SurCode for Dolby Digital” AC-3 output.

We encode the primary stream to HD, SD, or sub SD resolutions at .1 to 15 Mbps at most any GOP size, frame rate, refresh rate, or aspect ratio. As mentioned we can simultaneously create high, medium, and low bitrate streams to hand off appropriately scaled streams to your content delivery networks (CDNs) with required authentication, for "One to Many" distribution. Continually tested with the latest Adobe® and Wowza® servers, and many CDNs.
