MIT-xperts iSIMS
The extremely flexible and full-featured playout server for SI/PSI data
(SDT, EIT, PAT, PMT, NIT, BAT, TDT, TOT, AIT) with an intuitive user
interface and plug-in support for special customer's needs.
iSIMS SI Management system is designed to play out all your SI/PSI data.
Various "workers" allow you to broadcast simultaneously
on multiple delivery system types (DVB-S/C/T), manage network information
(NIT), or perform complex data manipulation operations.
Introduction
Whether you are just remapping input data to another transponder or you are managing a challenging SI signalling scenario, iSIMS is the right tool for you. It is powerful enough to handle the most complex scenarios, yet simple and easy to use.
The iSIMS has its own specialized user interface for SI table manipulation: The iSIMS GUI allows you to connect inputs to outputs with workers in between. Inputs provide SDT, EIT, PMT, BAT, and NIT from external sources (e.g. ASI, IP, or XML). Outputs transmit the data to various destinations (e.g. ASI, IP, or XML output). The workers manipulate the data sent through them: correct the data, rename events or services, translate service IDs, etc.
With the input/output/worker/flow configuration GUI, you always see a graphic representation of your current configuration.
Generates the following tables:
- EIT (Event Information Table)
- SDT (Service Description Table)
- BAT (Bouquet Association Table)
- RST (Running Status Table)
- TDT (Time and Date Table)
- TOT (Time Offset Table)
- NIT (Network Information Table)
- PMT (Program Mapping Table)
iSIMS features:
- automatic generation of all SI/PSI tables
- support multiple transponders on a single ASI/IP output
- allows graphical modelling of data flows, data manipulation, descriptors, SI tables, etc.
- extraordinary GUI
- extremely comprehensive range of features
- extensible by use of plugins (workers)
- status reporting / config change via SNMP agent
- efficient section packaging saves up to 20% EIT bitrate
Input features:
- ASI/IP input
- XML input (Jade™ compatible or TV-Anytime)
- present / following event triggering via XML
- manual input (enter data in GUI)
Output features:
- ASI/IP output
- XML output (Jade™ compatible or TV-Anytime)
- direct sections output (e.g. AIT)
- report output (for automatic report generation)
Manipulation options:
- EIT auto-correction (fix gaps and overlapping events)
- remove past and/or future EIT events (to save bitrate)
- remove/add descriptors from/to EIT, SDT, PMT, BAT, NIT
- service ID translation in SDT, EIT, PMT, BAT, NIT
- service / event renaming and parameter modification
- service / event / PMT / BAT / NIT filtering
- service linkage creation
- change character sets
- PMT / elementary stream PID translation
- NIT + EIT merging and creation
- ... and many more
iSIMS Trigger option:
- This option extracts VPS information from SDI signal from broadcast automation to automatically trigger the present/following event information.
