Multichannel MPEG-2 to H.264 Transcoders

Home >> DVB-S, S2 >> Multichannel MPEG-2 to H.264 Transcoders

Mobile TV transcoder combining IP or Satellite reception with MPEG-4/H.264 transcoding in a single unit.

It is the optimal solution for Mobile TV broadcast networks: ATSC M/H, DVB-H, DVB-SH, ISDB-T, etc... TransCaster supports natively MPEG-4 AVC/H.264 (video) and AAC-HE (audio) encoding at broadcast quality.

This compact unit integrates state-of-the-art encoding and preprocessing engines to provide the best user experience on Mobile TV.
