6.2.2.11 IP Encapsulation Type
MPE This selects Multi-Protocol Encapsulation (MPE) as the protocol for
encapsulating IP packets and Ethernet frames for transmission over
satellite when using DVB-S2. This protocol is widely supported and is
therefore useful for interoperability. It adds an overhead of around 10%.
ULE This selects Unidirectional Lightweight Encapsulation (ULE) as the
protocol for encapsulating IP packets and Ethernet frames for
transmission over satellite when using DVB-S2. It adds an overhead of
around 5% to 7%.
PXE This selects proprietary Paradise XStream Encapsulation (PXE) as the
protocol for encapsulating IP packets and Ethernet frames for
transmission over satellite when using DVB-S2. It adds an overhead of
around 2%.

6.2.2.12 Encapsulation PID
Range: 0 to 8190; step size: 1
Description: When encapsulating Ethernet frames or IP packets into MPEG2 packets
as part of a DVB-S2 IP service, this specifies the Packet ID (PID) value to
be entered into the MPEG2 packets that are being created. Note that the
value is in decimal, not hexadecimal.
The PID can then be used for filtering MPEG2 packets on the receive
side.
The encapsulation PID must be left at its default value of 970 if DVB-S2
AUPC or DVB-S2 ACM is being used.
