Multiplexer - On digital cue tones detection:
• seamless splice from the national to the
regional service and reverse (a few s
latency) - Gop accurate OR
•Service subsitution (50 ms, not seamless)
•Service must be in clear
•With even-id capability to select regions

For quality optimization the service to
substitute is VBR except during the
switch.
•Multiplexer – complementary process
•Scrambling, SFN or DVB-T2 adaptation

Splice / Ad Server - On digital cue
tones detection:
•Frame accurate seamess splice,
replacing live content by ad clips
•MPEG-2/4 SD/HD CBR

GOP / frame accurate seamless splicing
Device configuration and monitoring.
Handle service resiliency (redundancy)
Frame-accurate ingest of advertising
clips (MPEG-2, H.264, SD, HD)
Control the national and regional
headends, monitor the transmitters
Ad Insertion (SCTE-35/30 compliant)
Control the QOS with dedicated probes.
Scale from small to very large systems .

CONCLUSION
THE BEST PICTURE QUALITY AT LOW BITRATE IS A MUST
BW on DTTV network is very expensive, every Kbps must be used with efficiency.
REGIONALIZATION IS KEY FOR DTTV COMPETITION VERSUS DTH, IPTV, CABLE BUILDING BLOCS EXIST AND PROVIDES FLEXIBILITY, EFFICIENCY & COST
EFFECTIVENESS
Local encoding, live to live switch, ad insertion, SCTE35/30 compliant.
Optimized & secure transport of multiplexes over satellite (DVB-S2 multi TS)
FUTURE PROOF SYSTEM DESIGN & INTEGRATION REQUIRED TO FACE NEW
FEATURES TO OFFER, INCREASE OF REGIONS AND OTHER EVOLUTIONS
Scalable solutions required (features / sizing)
Flexible management SW, from contribution links to Transmitters
SFN & T2 adaptation, VBR, Ad Insertion, integrated Teletext to DVB sub, …
