3.6 IP TX
Figure 16 shows the IP TX page. The purpose of this page is to provide
an interface for configuring the different streams to be sent through the
unit.
Figure 16. IP TX page
The left part of screen shows a three containing all the DVB ASI input
ports. To select a port, click that port. The information to the right of
the page shows the IP transmission parameters for the selected port.
3.6.1 Main
The IP TX main sub-page is where you configure most of the
parameters related to a stream to transmit over the IP network.
1.1.1.23 Input Configuration
Enable input: Tick this box to enable an input. If this is not ticked, you
will not receive any MPEG-2 transport stream on this ASI input. The
input port will be grey in the status view (See Section 3.4.)
Input name: Enter a name reference to an ASI input stream.
Max bitrate: Enter the maximum bitrate the ASI input stream is
allowed to use. If the ASI input stream exceeds this bitrate, some data
in this stream is discarded to keep its bitrate lower than the maximum
bitrate setting. This prevents, when set correctly, one ASI stream from
maxing out the IP channel, and thus disrupting all streams present on
the IP channel. The sum of ‘Max bitrate’ for all active channels should
not exceed the IP channel bandwidth.
