PSI/SI Remuxing

Introduction

PSI/SI remuxing offers possibility to ingest PAT, NIT, NIT other, SDT, SDT other, EIT p/f, EIT p/f other, EIT schedule and EIT schedule other -tables from incoming transport stream.
It is possible to add input ports for both, NICs and ASI inputs.
After new input port has been added, it takes a while before tables are ingested from incoming transport stream.
In addition, the page must be refreshed before ingested tables for selected input port can be displayed.
If Playout server doesn't have a Dektec ASI card, and you try to add ASI input port an alert is displayed if browser settings allows that.

Usage

Adding an UDP Input Port

After pressing a "Add UDP Input Port" plus-icon, this window is opened:



Here you have to type an UDP port number and a multicast address that is used by the source, that we are listening. Finally after pressing "OK" -button,
an added input port should be listed in "Current Input Ports" -list on left-hand side of page view.
It is not possible to edit the input port settings afterwards. However, you can easily delete an existing input port by pressing a trash-icon,
and create a new one if needed.
It is important to remember, that if some firewall rules are used in the server, the used port must be enables in firewall rules.
It is also good to check, that NICs used in the server fully supports a multicast filtering.

Adding an ASI Input Port

After pressing a "Add ASI Input Port" plus-icon, this window is opened:



Here you have to type a card number and port number. Normally Playout server has just one ASI card, so in most cases the card number is 0 (zero).
Finally after pressing "OK" -button, an added input port should be listed in "Current Input Ports" -list on left-hand side of page view.

Attaching selected table from input TS to output TS

On the right-hand side of page view all created output transport streams are listed. All tables from the input TS can be drag-and-dropped to the output TS.
Immediately after this operation, the Playout server starts to output these tables on the output stream.

Removing selected table from output TS

If you want to remove a table from the output TS, just click the trash-icon of the table on the right-hand side tree.
After that it should be automatically disappear from the output TS.
