DVB network and PSI/SI sharing – network settings
When setting up a system where PSI/SI information is shared, you must also set the network settings for all
outgoing transport streams. The network_id (NID) must be identical for all outgoing transport streams, and all the
transport streams must have different Transport Stream ID (TSID), see also §10.9.
10.12 Transmodulation and transparent outputs
Connect input to output transparently
An input can be sent transparently to an output by selecting “Connect transparently to”. When an input is
“connected” to an output, as default there is no change of the content of the transport stream from input to
output:
■ All services, with all PIDs are sent from the input to the output
■ The PSI/SI tables are sent from input to output without any change or modification
Settings for transparent outputs
As an alternative to the default setting (no change of content or signalling) there are settings available for sharing
NIT, Network ID (NID), Network name and Delivery system descriptor. You can also select to remove null packets
from the output.
To edit these settings, click the menu icon, , and select Edit.
