4. General The IP-/ ASI-TV Modulator/ Multiplexer A-QAMOS-IPM is a devices of the head end system A-LINE, which is conceived as a complete system for big and middle sized networks. The A-QAMOS-IPM converts transponders included in IP or ASI transport streams into QAM signals to transmit them in cable networks assemble them in an integrated multiplexer. In this case, up to 16 QAM channels from available 64 transport streams are generated, which are attached via two inputs. The internal processing allows the output of DVB signals in full HD resolution.
5. Functional description The device receives a data stream via Gigabit Ethernet. It can receive 62 transport streams from the included IP encapsulated transport streams. A high-performance FPGA does the analogue TV modulation and the freely adjustable up-conversion into the cable network range (45 ... 862 MHz). The 16-fold modulator is adjacent channel compatible. A high-speed digital→analogue converter (DAC) is responsible for the excellent output signal. After amplification and sum level adjustment, the cable signal is coupled through a directional coupler to the output jacks.

7. Settings by web interface To use all functions of the device activate Java Script in your browser settings. Settings via checkbox are applied immediatelly, but not stored in memory! So they would be lost on a possible restart of the device. To save these settings the “send“ button must be pressed. Please send and store your settings by pressing the“send“ button after each change.
7.1 Network connection to the computer System requirements: - PC/ laptop with 10/ 100 Mbit Ethernet interface - Internet browser (e.g. Windows Internet Explorer), capable JAVA script Setup the connection: The device has to be connected to PC network using an Ethernet cable. The default IP address of the device is 192.168.1.100. In order to access the web interface of the device from a PC, the PC has to be in the same subnet (192.168.1.XXX; subnet mask 255.255.255.0), where XXX is not used by any other device in this subnet. If multiple devices are connected to the same network each device must be set to its own unique IP address to avoid address conflicts. After these settings, the IP address of the PC has to be adjusted to match the network. Now the devices can be accessed via browser with the new IP address. If activated (Setup→GUI Settings→Activate user and keyword check), the user has to log in now ( »chapter 7.2.8).
After successful registration or a connection establishment without password (default setting) the start page of the device is displayed ( »chapter 7.2.1).
8 7.2 Setting of individual parameters Here you can set certain parameters of the device or perform configurations. The various setting menus can be selected in the navigation tree on the left side. The setting is supported by an online help. If you mouse over a parameter explanations of this parameter are displayed in an orange colored text box in the lower part of the screen. By setting in the “Setup“ menu ( »chapter 7.2.8) can be selected so that the help is displayed in the status bar of your browser. If appropriate, setting changes in the browser options are necessary.
By default status information for the device are displayed below the navigation tree. An option to move it on the right side instead is available (GUI »chapter 7.2.8). All eight channels are listed individually. A green LED symbol in front of “channel 1 ... 8“ means that input and output are synchronized and that the channel operates without error. An orange colored symbol indicates that an error has occurred in that channel. An overview of the status of various parameters of the channel is obtained by clicking the corresponding channel. A transparent LED symbol means that the channel is not configured or the RF output is turned off.
If you click any channel an overview window is displayed. The pop-up window closes after 20 seconds or by cklicking in its lower part. The “Power“ LED indicates the connection status between the network interface and the device. The “System“ LED gives an overview over the status of system parameters of the device. In all menus it‘s possible to switch the language between German and English on the top of the right side.

9 7.2.1 Menu "Overview"
This page provides an overview of the 16 channels. The display is separated for the multiplexer and QAM output. If a channel works without errors, "MUX" resp. "QAM" is displayed in a green color. If the power is turned off "QAM:off" is displayed behind the respective channel. An inactive multiplexer is not displayed. Below the status window all devices belonging to the headend are listed (»"Setup" chapter 7.2.8). Functions across devices like the NIT exchange between devices of the QAMOS group can be done on all listed devices. The individual components of a headend are listed with their IP address. The IP address is a link, so you can switch to other devices easily. If no headend was configured, a "Search" button is displayed. It opens the "Setup" menu and scans the network for other A-LINE-SBL and SBL devices. Then all available devices are listed. They can be selected and added to the headend. By clicking the "Logout" button the user is logged out and the login window is displayed.
10 7.2.2 Menu “IP input” This is the menu for the network configuration of the IP input and the configuration of the 62 stream ports. They compile the 16 desired transponders for transmission.
In the top field the configuration options for the two stream ports are displayed. Stream Port 2 is only available after enabling the software option (»chapter 7.2.8). Enter the IP address, subnet mask and gateway address for each port. The next step is to configure the setup parameters of the 62 IP input transport streams (IP input channels). These are listed in the left setting field. Via double-click on a channel it can be edited in the setting field at tthe right. To do so, it's IP address, port and transport protocol (UDP or RTP) have to be entered. By pressing the button “Apply“ the settings are assumed. Press “Apply +“ / “Apply -“ button and skip to the following / previous channel. To simplify the setting of the 62 channels, it is possible to increase the port or IP address automatically by a value between 1 and 50, when you switch to the next channel. For this purpose, the check box in front of “Auto port“ or “Auto IP“ must be marked and the rate of increase must be chosen. Finally, confirm by pressing the “Send“ button. Unused ports are disabled by entering the IP address 0.0.0.0. Identical settings within these 62 IP channels are not allowed and automatically marked red. Note: Some switches apply configuration changes for the multicast group after the set query interval has expired. Some switches ignore unsolicited IGMP join message. If the querier in the switch is set to a longer interval, the switch might ignore the emitted IGMP message and thus the srtream is not transmitted instantly after the configuration changed. Upon expiration of the query interval, the switch checks its membership in multicast groups. The device responds. The response is accepted by the switch, which then transmits the stream to the device.

11 7.2.2.1 SFP option The SFP option allows the connection of different devices to the IP input. Depending on the SFP device various management and media types can be connected to the A-PALIOS-IPM4. So the IP input can be expanded by another IP data source. The SFP device requires stream port 2, with the result that either “Stream port 1“ or “Stream port 2“ can be used as an IP input.
One of the two IP inputs can be defined as the preferred source and the other IP input as redundancy source. If an IP data source fails, it‘ll switch to the other data source. Individual rules can be defined. First you have to decide whether an IP input channel is included in the monitoring. In addition, you have to choose when to switch: either when one input channel fails or when all monitored channels are failing. The switching will occur even no signal is present on the redundancy input. The switch back to the preferred IP input is not automatically. It has to be done manually via the user interface. Note, that an automatic switch based on the defined rules will not occur until data was received on the monitored channels once. In the mask of the network settings the option of selecting the preferred IP input is displayed. The selection is done by pressing the respective option button. Select the line “Error check of the channels“ as described above. Choose “or“ to perform the redundancy switchover if any one of the monitored channels is failing. Choose “and“ to perform the redundancy switchover if all monitored channels fail. The configuration of the 62 IP input transport streams as explained in chapter 7.2.2. Select the field “Monitoring“ if the channel should be included in the monitoring. These transport streams are indicated in the table above with an “x“.
12 7.2.3 Menu ”Multiplexer” In this menu for the compilation of the channel packages, that are transferred to the output channels. On the left the 64 IP inputs (62 IP channels + ASI channel + media player), on the right the 16 outputs are displayed.
To make alterations, click the prefered output channel (active channels are highlighted in orange color). A list of the services that are already transmitted in the channel will be shown. If no services have been transferred, the list is empty. Press the “X“ button to remove a service. To add a service, first select one (or more) input(s) (input 1 - 62, ASI, media player). If done, the scan starts and the services are listed, assigned to their inputs. By pressing the button “All loading“ below, the services of all inputs are listed. The “>>“ buttons add a service to the transfer list at the right. With a double-click on the name of the channel (right column) the adjacent window is displayed, where you can edit name and service ID of the channel.
Select the checkbox in front of a service, to show a corresponding, extended list of the service with all of it's contained single streams. The checkbox behind a single stream marks, if it's transmitted or not. The expanded list must stay open after such a filtering of single streams. Otherwise the filtering is undone and all streams are sent. If the checkbox of the extented list isn‘t active, also all streams are transferred.

13 Further you can select, with which priority (low, middle or high) the transfer of services is done. Due to the dynamic transmission rate of the services the brutto bitrate of the channel could be exceeded. This could lead to malfunctions up to total failure of services. In this case, services with the lowest priority are restricted, so that the ongoing transmission of high-priority services is trouble-free. If you choose too much services for transmission the brutto bitrate could be exceeded. This is indicated by a red LED in front of the channel. Read in the “Status“ menu (»chapter 7.2.10) the output parameter (overflow bitrate > 0 MBps). The number of services to be transmitted must be reduced until the channel bitrate does not exceed the brutto bitrate (overflow bitrate = 0 MBps) anymore.
The “i“ button gives an overview of the assignment of the 16 output channels. The transmitted programs are listed per channel, specifying their name, service ID and name of the transponder from which the transmitter was taken.
14 7.2.4 Menu ”Transponders” In this menu the transponder and program selection is done. The user interface is divided in two tables.
In the left table the current transponder allocation of the 16 output channels are displayed. The selection of the output channel is done within the chosen frequency raster (“Setup → GUI setup“ »chapter 7.2.8). The checkbox (de-)activates the RF signal, the radio button enables the setting and a detailed view of the channel. The right table lists all contained TV and radio programs of the selected channel according to the settings you did in the menu "Multiplexer" (»chapter 7.2.3). Select a channel via the radio button or the navigation tree (submenu "Transponders") for adjustments. Select the respective checkbox if you would change the output channel. Any double allocation within the 16 channels is not allowed and is automatically highlighted.

21 Settings of the web interface The device supports the DHCP functionality. DHCP-Client is factory default. Note, that after each factory reset the device is set to “DHCP-Client“. If the DHCP functionality is set to “Off“, the appropriate fields for IP number, subnet mask and gateway can be set manually to fit the network. If the device is set as “DHCP-Client“, it automatically obtains an IP address from the DHCP server on the network. The manual network settings are disabled.
By pressing the “Info“ button the automatically assigned network configuration of the device is displayed. Close the window by clicking in its lower area or wait 20 seconds.
Please note: If the device is set as “DHCP-Server“, the IP address 192.168.1.100 must not be set. If you select this address an error message will be displayed. In addition to the IP settings, you can configure the DHCP range from which the connected client IP addresses are assigned. The address range has to match the IP address and subnet mask of the server and should not be too small. The default is 192.168.1.1 to 192.168.1.99. Along with the DHCP server a local DNS (Domain Name Server) will be set up. To use it in full extent a connected PC/ laptop must be configured as a DHCP client. Note that, using Windows, not only the IP address but also the DNS server address has to be obtained automatically. If the device is configured as a DHCP server or client and the client has received an IP address successfully, the device can be accessed via a web browser using its name. This name is composed of the prefix “sbl“ and the device number that is printed on the back of the device and on the packaging. For example, the device with the number 0123456 can be found under “sbl0123456“. It might be necessary to add the domain name. In case that the device was configured as a server, the name of the domain is “sbl0123456.sbl“. If another DHCP server is used, ask your administrator for the domain name. An example for the simplification of the configuration or operation of the headend via DHCP is, that an A-LINE-SBL device is configured as a server, the remaining devices and the connected PC/ laptop are configured as a client. By calling “dhcp.sbl“ in the browser the GUI of the server device is loaded. Now the headend can be read. So all connected components are found and listed. The headend can now be stored in the Setup→System administration. By selecting the respective devices link in the headend overview, you can switch to the other devices user interface quickly.
22 SNMP-Option First section: The “Mode“ selection field enables or disables the SNMP functionality, including the sending of traps. The selector “Version“ sets the SNMP version (version 1, 2 or 3). In the two fields below, the reading and writing via SNMP is separately indicated for the versions 1 and 2. In version 3, these two fields are disabled. Here, all registered users of the device (GUI Settings→Passwords) have the automatic read access to SNMP. The write access can be enabled or disabled for each user by clicking the SNMP-check box in the “Passwords“ menu. By clicking the “MIB“ button the MIB of the device is generated and can be downloaded. Second section: The trap settings are done here. First select the trap version: V1 trap normal traps according to SNMPv1 with specified community V2 trap normal traps according to SNMPv2 with specified community V2 inform sends information traps according to SNMPv2 and waits for an acknowledgement V3 trap normal traps according to SNMPv3 V3 inform sends information traps according to SNMPv3 and waits for an acknowledgement In traps of version 1 and 2 the community can be configured. In traps of version 3 you can configure the user/password and the usage of the network MAC address as engine ID. These settings must correspond with the configuration of the trap receiver, so that traps are successfully transferred. For this purpose a test trap can be sent by clicking the button “Test“. If a test trap triggered, all pre-preserved traps are discarded. Up to 256 IP addresses can be created resp. unlocked to receive the traps. They are listed under “Receiver IP“. Third section: Events are configured, whether (and with which thresholds) they trigger traps. There are three ways to configure a trap: • without parameters, e.g. fan on/ off • with a free selectable parameter for a medium priority • with a selectable parameter from a list box for a medium priority Events leading up to trigger an SNMP trap, can be (de-) activated and their parameters can be configured. References and notes: All users using SNMPv3 must use passwords with at least 8 characters. For SNMPv3 the A-LINE-SBL supports only the authentication password, not the privacy password. The A-LINE SBL only supports the MD5 algorithm for authentication password in SNMPv3. Information traps are specific traps that are available since SNMPv2.If the sender gets no “acknowledge“ from the receiver, it will retransmit until the “acknowledge“ is received. An A-LINE SBL device keeps up to 256 information traps that were not sent successfully. If there are more unconfirmed traps, the older traps are discarded and marked in the logbook as “failed“. A successfully sent trap is also registered in the logbook. In case of power failure or reboot of the device the non-confirmed traps are lost. You‘ll find details in the help text for each event. The critical priorities are set to fixed values that can not be changed. If the web interface of the device is open, no changes are possible via SNMP.

23 Passwords This setting can only be done bya logged in administrator, who has the permission to make administrative changes. In addition the check box “GUI settings→User and password check“ has to be enabled. The user ID and password for the administrator can be set in the first line. Up to 8 users and passwords can be created. Non-admin users have readonly rights. The default password for the admin is: and for users:
1111 0000
If the SNMP option is enabled, for each user a SNMP check box will be displayed. By clicking the box you assign the writing rights for individual users, available since SNMP version 3 ( »section SNMP option).
Player file system1 Only available with enabled media player option. The player file system lists the stored files in media player with file name, description and file size. It offers the opportunity to install a file from a PC/ laptop to the A-LINE SBL device via network. The file must be available in a transport stream format that corresponds to the DVB standard. The data rate of the whole data stream must be constant and shall not exceed 40 Mbps. The content of the data stream can be single or multiple transport streams (SPTS or MPTS). To create a transport stream file the free software ffmpeg is recommended (www.ffmpeg.org). To upload the file you select the menu item “Setup“. In the section “Player file system“ the uploaded file is already displayed with their name, description and file size in kilobytes. To upload or change the transport stream file, click the button “Upload File“. In the following dialog you select a file and can optionally specify a text description for this file. Note, that neither in the file name nor in the text description are umlauts or special characters. By clicking the “Upload“ button, the previously selected file is transferred to the A-LINE SBL device. A previously existing file is automatically deleted. For the time of file uploads the GUI is locked. A dialog shows the progress in percent. If necessary, the file upload may be aborted by pressing the “Cancel“ button. Subsequently, the file can be used as input to any output channel. To do so, select in the menu “Multiplexers→Pl“ as player and you can add the saved file to the transport stream of the selected output channel (»chapter 7.2.3). To produce a transport stream file in the appropriate format, the company BLANKOM provides a corresponding conversion tool. This may generate a corresponding file in the transport stream format, which the device can handle. A detailed description of the conversion tool can be found in »chapter 9. 1 only available with enabled media player option
24 7.2.9 Menu ”Level” In the first section you can enable or disable the loop through output. If enabled, select the nominal level for all 16 channels in the range from 60 ... 78 dBµV. If the loop is disabled, the output level of the 8 channels can be set in the range of 72 ... 90 dBµV. The device variant 5111.83 includes an amplifier. If this amplifier is used in the internal SBL mode, it is fixed at +21 dB. The level selection can be set automatically in a range between 94 ... 114 dBµV (»chapter 7.2.11 “Amplifier“). Furthermore each channel can be set individually with an offset of +3 ... -6 dB in 0.5 dB steps. The buttons simplify the offset level setting if you want to make the same adjustments for all 16 channels. The left button increases the offset by 0.5 dB, the right button decreases it by 0.5 dB. With the middle button you‘ll set the offset of all 16 channels to 0 dB.
7.2.10 Menu ”Status” It shows an overview of the status of the various components per channel, updated every 5 seconds. Listed are only the current values. Mouse over the parameter to display its name in the help box or in the status bar of the browser (according to your configuration).
A- Q A M O S- I P M • Part N o : 5111.81 / 5111.83 I P- /A S I - TV Mo dulato r / M ultiplexer
25 When listing the output parameters for each channel the available brutto bit rate, the used channel bit rate and the possibly existing overflow bit rate are displayed. The used channel bit rate should be smaller than the brutto bit rate. Otherwise it can cause disturbances or even failure of the transferred services. Check therefor the utilization and possibly reduce the number of transferred services when setting the channel assignment in menu “Multiplexers“ (»chapter 7.2.3). The individual services and their status are listed by clicking the check box in front of “Services“.
When listing the system parameters the parameters of the device and of the media player are displayed.
7.2.11 Menu “Amplifier“ The amplifier can be set and used independently of the device. It does not influence the device itself or other devices of the headend. The adjustment range of amplification is between 15 .... 35 dB.
• amplifier deactivated: power consumption 0 W output level with loop 60 ... 78 dBµV without loop 72 .... 90 dBµV
• amplifier activated: power consumption output level without loop
+14W 72 ... 90 dBµV + amplification (15 ... 35)
• internal SBL mode The amplifier is fixed at +21 dB and is automatically integrated into the level display menu. Thus the max. output level is at 114 dBµV. In view of the deterioration of the signal to noise ratio the use of loop is not recommended. • SET reference The actual applied level is set as a reference. The status menu displays the level deviation of a value during operation.
26 7.2.12 Menu ”NIT” The NIT processing for all to a headend associated devices of the A-QAMOS and QAMOS product group can be done in 2 ways: as an automatic or manual NIT processing. The simplest and by installation and support expense safest way is the automatic NIT processing. The precondition is that all to the headend associated above mentioned devices have a different IP address and an Ethernet switch must be connected to each other. The NIT settings must be made here only in one of the above mentioned devices of the headend and after confirmation they are automatically included of all other devices. The Ethernet connection among each other is not necessary for the manual NIT processing, but the settings must be made or maintained separately in each device of the headend, which means a much higher expense. To start the NIT processing it is first necessary to put together the headend in the user interface: Menu Setup→Headend “Read“ or in the case of factory setting of the device: Menu Overview→Headend “Read“. All devices of the A-QAMOS and QAMOS product group are listed that are within the network. If there is no network connection between the mentioned devices (the case of manual NIT processing), here only this one device appears on which the settings are being implemented. The next step, all mentioned devices are selected, which should belong to the headend (in the case of the manual NIT processing the device itself) and the selection has to be confirmed with the “Send“ button.
7.2.12.1 Automatic NIT processing As explained above, all devices of the A-QAMOS and QAMOS product group of the headend must be connected via an Ethernet switch for automatic NIT processing. The creation or editing of the NIT settings must only be done on one device of the headend and is then applied from all other devices automatically. It presents the last created NIT table of the whole headend with continuous listing of the following parameters: transport stream ID, original network ID, output frequency in kHz, QAM constallation, symbol rate in kSps, insert and delete fields It presents the last created NIT table of the whole headend with continuous listing of the following parameters: transport stream ID, original network ID, output frequency in kHz, QAM constallation, symbol rate in kSps, insert and delete fields. A characteristic of the automatic NIT processing is that all channels of the devices are listed in frequency-ascending blue colored table cells. If the first time a NIT is created, a list appears with no table entries. The loading or update of the NIT is then in edit mode. By clicking the “Export“ button, the NIT of the headend is saved as a .xml-file on the PC. By clicking the box “Edit“ in the top right of the user interface you can switch to edit mode and edit the NIT entries. With the “+“ button, an entry will be added. The settings of the last table entry are accepted and must be adjusted accordingly. With the “Delete“ button the table entry is removed. Also in this mode, you can save the NIT of the device with the “Export“ button as .xml-file on the PC. By clicking the “Import“ button, another NIT can be added, which was previously stored as a .xml file on the PC. In this way its easy possible to create a NIT of a system with multiple devices of the A-QAMOS and QAMOS product group. In the NIT processing all the selected table entries are included. In the lower part of the GUI it appears additionally an overview of the settings for the NIT processing of all the channels
A-Q A M O S- I P M • Part n o. 5111.81 • IP- /AS I- T V Mo dulato r
27 of the headend. Here the NIT transmission per channel can be switched on or off easily and the network name and network ID can be changed. The settings are identical to the menu Settings→Transport stream processing (»chapter 7.2.5). Confirm and store with the “Send“ button.
7.2.12.2 Manual NIT processing After the preparation or initializing of the NIT, described in 7.2.11, first it must be called the edit mode of the NIT in each device of the A-QAMOS and QAMOS product group of the headend, read the NIT of the device and stored on the PC by clicking the “Export“ button. Then you append the NIT of the other mentioned devices, which belong to the headend, by repeatedly pressing the “Import“ button in edit mode. As opposed to the automatic NIT processing here appear the added tables in white color. After the appropriate selection of channels of the NIT and any change in the network name or network ID the NIT of this device is stored and transferred by pressing the “Send“ button. To facilitate the setting of all other mentioned devices in the headend, this headend NIT can be stored in the PC by clicking the “Export“ button. Now all the other devices of the A-QAMOS and QAMOS product group of the headend have called successively, these stored NIT loaded by pressing the “Import“ button and then adopted and saved by pressing the “Send“ button. For changes of the NIT is to be noted that these changes must be made in the NIT of each device. It is therefore recommended to prefer the automatic NIT processing of the manual NIT processing.
28 7.2.13 Menu ”LCN” The allocation of a logical channel number (LCN) is a service that allocates a serial number to each TV program in all the channels, which are enabled for this service. If the set-top box supports this service at the subscriber, the TV programs are offered in the order established by program numbers.
To use this service, the LCN processing of all appropriate channels must be turned on. Then you can set the program order. It shouldbe noted that the numbering is done separately for HD and SD programs. When you first load the LCN editor there in the left tablecell, all the transferred services of the channels are listed that were marked in the lower right table for LCN processing. TV channels are already pre-selected, separated for HD and SD programs, all services are still provided with the number 0. You can now assign the LCN for the selected program automatically by pressing the “OK“ button in the right box “automatic numbering“, starting with the number registered there.
7.2.14 Menu ”Program table” The program table gives an overview of the channel allocation of the A-QAMOS-IPM. The overview begins with the output frequency and output channel identifier for each transmission channel. Under them all TV and radio programs are listed, which are transmitted in this channel. By pressing the “Download“ button the program table is stored as text file on PC.

8. Factory settings A short pressing of the reset button on the front of the device causes a reboot, i.e. the device restarts and all stored values are restored. If the device must be reset to factory settings, please press the reset button until the “POWER“ and “SYSTEM“ LED will illuminate green permanently again. This process takes about 15 seconds. The factory settings are:

9. Conversion tool to create a compliant TS file The option "Media player" gives an opportunity to install a TS file from a via network connected PC to the device. The file must have a DVB standard conform format. BLANKOM affords a conversion program which generates a compliant file from a large number of video file formats. Following this, the converted file can be fed-in as an additional channel.
9.1 Range of functions „VideoKonverter.jar“ converts the video files into the required transport stream format. The program makes sure that the resulting file has a constant bitrate, correct video and audio bitrates and that the TS meta data are configurable as requested. Available are resolutions SD, HD 720 or HD 1080. „tsmux.exe“ optimizes the generated transport stream so that the player is able to run compressed null packages. „FFmpeg“ generates the transport stream. It is based on a buffer model that is different from the player. Therefore “tsmux.exe“ arranges the packets in the transport stream so that continue-count-errors that are caused by the wrong buffer model can be suppressed.
9.2 Installation requirements The conversion program consists of two components: the platform-independent“VideoKonverter.jar“ and the Windows application“tsmux.exe“. For the installation of the program requires the following:
1. Check the installed version of Java
Establish an internet connection to the PC and call up the following link (free dowload): http://www.java.com/en/download/testjava.jsp Update your software, if necessary. Alternatively, test the Java version without an internet connection using command prompt: Open the command prompt and type java-version followed by . Result is either an error message if Java is not installed or the version information of the existing Java installation.
2. Install the software“FFmpeg“ to run the program
To run the conversion tool, you need to download and install the free“FFmpeg“ software, according to your system software (32 bit version recommended): Linux http://ffmpeg.gusari.org/static/ Windows http://ffmpeg.zeranoe.com/builds/ MacO http://www.evermeet.cx/ffmpeg/ An installation of FFmpeg as a self-running process is not required. The downloaded, packed files must be extracted in a freely chosen target path. Later, this path is used in the “VideoKonverter“ software as an auxiliary path.
3. Preview of the video file
BLANKOM recommendates the VLC player to preview your chosen video file. This player can handle many of the popluar video formats. Free download under: VLC player http://www.videolan.org/vlc/#download Start the installation with "vlc.exe".
A-Q A M O S- I P M • Part n o. 5111.81 • IP- /AS I- T V Mo dulato r
31 When you install the software (Java, VLC player) read the message windows to refuse activities of third-party programs or other advertising. For the following software releases, the functionality of the video converter tool has been successfully tested: system software Windows XP und Windows7 Java with version 6 and higher FFmpeg Windows XP / 7 - 32 bit with version 01e3340 and higher
9.3 Installation and integration of the conversion tool First, the inclusion of the auxiliary path and the first conversion is shown. After the files are unpacked from FFmpeg to the selected folder, link this path in the converter. You simply select the button “path to ffmpeg“ (pictured in red) and click through their folder structure to the path where the file was unpacked. There, select the “bin“ folder and confirm by clicking the button “Öffnen“ or “Open“. In order to perform post processing, you have to link the path to “tsmux.exe“ in the converter. Then, click the button “path to postprocessing“ (pictured in green) and click it there by their own folder structure to the path where the file is located. There, choose the file “tsmux.exe“ and confirm by clicking the button “Öffnen“ or “Open“.
32 After the successful installation of the player, choose a file in the converter program and confirm with the button “Quell-Datei abspielen“ ("play source file"). It starts the video player and plays the selected file. The button “Ziel-Datei“ ("target file") defines the path and name for the file. The file extension will be denomted in any case as *. ts and can not be changed. To distinguish the individual films a unique name must be used. False numeric declarations or unfilled required field inhibit the start of the conversion. Incorrect filled entry fields are highlighted in red color. The limits of the allowed values are displayed as a tooltip when you mouse over the input field. Now the settings for the output parameters of the conversion follows. A detailed overview of the range and standard information can be found in the glossary (» chapter 9.5). When converting SD content to HD content, the picture information is extended. The quality can't be compared with original HD content. Without configuring the path for post-processing it is not possible to optimize the transport stream file. The check boxes “Null-Pakete komprimieren“ ("pack null packets") and “Vermeidung von ContinueCount-Fehlern“ ("avoid continue-count-errors") remain inactive.
9.4 Fault prevention • If you want to a create HD video from SD material there are qualitative degradation because data is added that isn't contained in the original contnet. • Provider name, service name, and original network ID are system dependent. they act as an assignment in the net • To avoid fatal disturbances in the network, the elementary stream ID must be unique throughout the network.
9.5 Glossary - parameter declaration [min. … max. range] Provider-Name [freely selectable] (provider name) Service-Name [freely selectable] (service name) Original Network-Id [0 … 65.536] (original network ID) Elementarstrom-Id [256 … 8.191] (elementary stream ID) Service-Id [0 … 65.536] (service ID) PMT Start-Pid [4.096 … 8.191] (PMT start PID) TS Start-Pid [0 … 65.536] (TS start PID)
Auflösung SD, HD 720. HD 1080 (resolution) Seitenverhältnis 4:3, 16:9, 24:10 (aspect ratio) Null-Pakete komprimieren 1 yes, no (compress null packets) Vermeidung von Continue-Count-Fehlern 2 yes, no (avoid continue count errors)
This switch enables the compression of null packets in the transport stream. Thus, a significant reduction in file size is achieved especially for files that have a big difference between video and transport stream bit rate. However, the resulting files are not compatible with conventional software programs.These compressed files are used only by the A-QAMOS-IPM or compatible devices of BLANKOM company. 1
This switch activates a function which suppresses the conversion resulting from the continue count errors due to the different buffer models. It is strongly recommended to enable this option in order to achieve optimal results. 2
