Product Information

The MTX100B MPEG-2 Recorder and Player offers a flexible, affordable solution for design evaluation and conformance testing of digital video products using MPEG-2 technology. The MTX100B records and plays out MPEG-2 transport streams compliant with ATSC, DVB, and ISDB standards at the high data rates needed to verify and troubleshoot designs for high-performance video products and systems. The large internal storage, USB 2.0, and Ethernet download capability help you build and maintain a large library of test streams. A suite of DVB, ATSC, and MPEG Test streams are provided with the instrument and optional Multiplexer software with new integrated playout functionality, provides a complete stream creation and generation tool set.

The MTX100B offers continuous, error-free transport stream looping for long-duration playout, and PCR jitter insertion for stressing designs. Users can continuously loop all sample streams, including updating of all time stamps, continuity counters, time tables (TDT, TOT, and STT), Normal Playtime Reference, ISDB-T Reed Solomon FEC plus RTP time stamps and sequence numbers for IPTV, without fear of buffer under- or overflow. IP generation capability negates the need to purchase a separate IP Player and provides a consistent user experience regardless of which physical interface is used to generate streams. Investment is protected through inclusion of support for IPv6 and TTS standards.

Ethernet network remote control functionality enables control of functions such as Play, Record, Clock Rate, and Jitter Insertion using the SCPI (Standard Control for Programmable Instruments) command set.

The MTX100B can play any transport stream files, including custom transport streams created with offline multiplexers in the Tektronix MPEG Analysis Tools. In addition, the MTX100B can play data files in other formats, including elementary streams and files in DSS format.

Applications

Development

For the development of instruments that process digital television signals, the MTX100B is a powerful signal source for parametric stress tests and evaluation. Streams can be repeatedly played out into development systems and equipment without timing discontinuities, simulating transmissions easily and consistently.

Manufacturing

The ability to repeatedly playout a range of transport streams directly into equipment in a manufacturing environment is crucial when checking quality and conformance. The user interface makes control of MTX100B intuitive and simple, and remote control interfaces provide the flexibility of remote and automated control.

Integration

The MTX100B can be used as a broadcast simulator when installing and debugging transmission chains by using test streams and recording transmissions. The user's control over the source material removes a major element of uncertainty when installing systems and equipment. This speeds up the installation and debugging process, and helps ensure a better end result. The large number of physical and electrical transport stream interfaces that Tektronix supports means that interfacing to other pieces of equipment in the transmission chain is easy.

Transmission

For error analysis of Transport Streams, the MTX100B provides continuous recording that can be controlled by external trigger signals from the MTM400 Transport Stream monitoring tool. Digital TV broadcasters and Network operators can analyze captured streams in-depth using Industry-leading Tektronix Analysis Tools.

A Scheduler application enables the MTX100B to be used as a simple content scenario server for transport-stream based transmissions. The extendable storage allows users to tailor the amount of storage they require.

IPTV

Support for IP Stress test playout with capabilities for error insertion (IP Packet Drops, Checksum Errors, Sequence Errors, and Packet Jitter), burst mode (both timing and packet number based), and manual error generation capabilities provide a complete solution for validating IPTV equipment designs. Advanced Mode provides protocol header customization capabilities for source and destination ports and addresses, setting MAC address, transport checksum, network checksums, and user editing of any packet header field parameters.

Session replication functionality is provided to simultaneously encapsulate and play a TS over many IP sessions to simulate an IPTV environment.

Portable MPEG Analysis

The addition of the MTS400 MPEG analysis toolset to the MTX100B platform provides the broadest, deepest MPEG tool set on a highly portable platform. Ideally suited to in-field installation, commissioning, and debug of complex MPEG transmission systems the analysis options offered with the MTX100B provide both real-time and offline transport stream analysis capability for ASI/SMPTE310M interfaces. Additional options provide offline multiplexing, PES and buffer analysis, elementary stream analysis, and data broadcast analysis and generation.

A separate data sheet is available covering the MTX100B Stream Multiplexing and Analysis options in greater detail.
