Table versioning
scheme
Normally the version numbers of the PSI/SI tables are incremented by one for
each change. This parameter provides the means to force outgoing tables to use
Odd or Even numbers.
This configuration is used in conjunction with
Output Redundancy
to differentiate
two sources (Main and Backup) from each other, ensuring that receivers will
detect if a redundancy switch has occurred. Should a switch occur, the receivers
will reprocess the PMT and detect a potentially new PID line-up.
The drop down box provides three options:
Normal
–
version numbers are incremented normally
Force
Odd
–
version numbers are incremented using odd numbers only
Force
Even
–
version numbers are incremented using even numbers only
CA descriptor
placement
Some STBs have specific requirements on the location of the CA descriptor in the
PMT. By default, the unit will place the CA descriptor in both
Service
and
Component
level in the PMT.
The drop down box provides three options:
Service
Level
–
CA descriptor is in the service loop only
Component
Level
–
CA descriptor is in the component loop only
Service
and
Component
Level
–
CA descriptor is in both loops
PMT caching
Checking this option ensures that the output will not lose the PMT even if the
stream’s input disappears.
