MP2TSME Technical Specifications
Tool Kit Features
The Tool Kit includes utilities that perform the following standalone functions:
- Insert / extract 608 & 708 closed captioning data into / from an existing video elementary stream
- Trim video elementary streams to start with a sequence header
- Display detailed information about each picture in an input video elementary stream
- Copy specified range of access units from input video elementary stream
- Display detailed information about each access unit in an input audio elementary stream
- Copy specified range of access units from input audio elementary stream
- Insert user private tables in transport packets to create a prepacketized data stream
- Copy specified range of transport packets from input transport stream
- Include integrated Demultiplexer that extracts video and audio elementary streams from existing .MP4 container files, MPEG system, program, VOB, or transport stream files
- Mux DVB subtitles from Spruce STL files, VOBSUB .IDX files, or Scenarist scripts for DVB
- MBatch Utility automates multiplexing of multiple input files, and files that are dynamically generated in a watch folder
Multiplexer Features
The enhanced transport stream multiplexer includes the following general features:
- Generates fully-compliant MPEG-2 transport streams
- Defaults are selected for all stream parameters so only input and output file names are required
- Simple configuration file format
- Supports command-line execution of the TS Mux Engine, TS Demux Engine, TS Remux Function, Video Trim Utility, and Maximum Duration Utility
- Output stream is verified with the decoder buffer model specified by the MPEG standard
- Output transport rate range of 1 Kbps to 1 Gbps
- Supports up to 65535 programs in the output TS file
- Accepts up to 16 MPEG-1, MPEG-2 and/or H.264/AVC video elementary streams per program
- Supports all video layers and profiles, both constant bit rate and variable bit rate
- Accepts up to 64 audio elementary streams per program
- Supports Dolby AC-3, Enhanced AC-3, AAC, MPEG-4 (HE-AAC), MPEG Layer 1, 2, and 3, and DTS audio
- Supports SMPTE 302M-2002 AES3 data
- Muxes DVB subtitles from bitmapped data (ETSI EN 300 743) and ITU-R System B teletext (ETSI EN 300 472) using Private Stream 1
- Multiplexes Digital Program Insertion Cueing Message streams (ANSI/SCTE 35 2004 and CableLabs CEP 2.0)
- Displays a summary of output stream characteristics
- Runs on Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux
Transport Options
The following optional transport parameters may be specified for the transport stream:
- Transport rate may be specified by the user, or may be computed automatically for optimal bandwidth
- Duration of output stream
- PSI (PAT and PMT) may be automatically created, or disabled
- PAT and PMT insertion rates
- Discontinuity indicator may be set in the PID 0 packet carrying the initial PAT
- Leader of specified duration containing only PSI may precede elementary data packets
- PAT version number and transport stream ID value
- Transport priority indicator may be set in all PID 0 packets
- Prepacketized data may be inserted at a specified rate
- Output packet size may be increased from the 188-byte default up to 512 bytes
- Output stream may be processed for seamless concatenation using the Terminator technology
- Output may be segmented into multiple files
Program Options
The following optional program parameters may be specified for each program in the transport stream:
- PMT program number and version number
- PMT PID and PCR PID values
- Program descriptors
- Initial PMT discontinuity
