MTG300
The MTG300 MPEG-2 Generator is a flexible,
cost-effective source of MPEG-2 transport
streams for design evaluation and conformance
testing of compressed digital video products.
This instrument offers storage and playback of
MPEG-2 transport streams compliant with the
ATSC, DVB and ISDB standards. The MTG300
generates error-free, seamless transport
streams for long term playout. To facilitate
complete stress testing, the MTG300 features
the most comprehensive capabilities for
customizing transport streams on the market.
The basic functionality of the MTG300,
combined with the customization features
of the MTG300, makes this MPEG generator
ideally suited for use in research, design
and manufacturing applications.
