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: Evaluate IRD/STB designs and manufacturing processes Evaluate performance of MPEG-2 equipment Perform conformance testing of MPEG-2 systems Provide 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.
