TS Analyser was developed to meet the needs of engineers who require a powerful tool for analyzing TS and T2-MI (DVB-T2) signals. It is a valuable tool for any professional working with digital television signals, encoders, modulators, digital headends, and more.
What is a Transport Stream analyzer used for?
Many of the devices involved in broadcasting use metadata information that is transferred along with the audio and video packaged in the Transport Stream. This includes everything from modulators at headends to televisions in homes.
All these devices are highly sensitive to the various parameters and tables contained in the Transport Stream. An incorrect parameter can prevent the television from displaying a service, storing it in the wrong position, or rendering it unable to decode the audio. The way to verify the parameters contained in the signal is by analyzing its Transport Stream.
Because TS Analyser benefits from the Transport Stream analysis algorithms used by the HD RANGER 2 and HD RANGER 3 field strength meters, we can access much more detail about the captured signal than what we would see on the field strength meter.
A high-end field strength meter like the PROMAX HD RANGER 2 or HD RANGER 3 can capture a Transport Stream and copy it to a PC.
If compatible, a TS file recorded with a DVB-T tuner or television can also be used. However, in most cases, televisions and DVB-T tuners discard several tables from the Transport Stream, resulting in a file with very little information.
Alternatively, a TS file obtained with TS Creator, another free PROMAX utility that generates files for playback on the EN-206 home digital modulator, can be used.
