SPTS – Advanced options
Below the settings for tuners 1 to 8 or 16, advanced options for the transport streams can be configured.
Specify a special PID for the Event Information Table (EIT).
In some countries the EIT is not transmitted with PID 18 (e.g. Israel PID 90). In this case, the headend can change this PID to
PID 18.
Open the
Advanced options
option field and below it the
EIT option
field.
For tuners 1 to 8 or 16, enter the PIDs used to transmit the EIT.
The entered PID of the EIT is then converted to PID 18.
By default, each SPTS stream contains an Event Information Table (EIT) for the program that is transmitted in the stream.
Alternatively, an EIT from all programs can be muxed to a separate SPTS stream.
Enable the option
Send EIT in a separate IP stream
.
Enter the IP address of the EIT stream. Important, the IP address must not be used by another stream.
Enter the port of the EIT stream.
If a separate EIT data stream is configured...
... then it will be displayed in Phase 3. The data rate is also displayed. The mode is always UDP and cannot be changed
... then the other STPS streams no longer contain EIT.
Query EIT information
For example, the following HTTP requests can be used to retrieve EIT information. Requests can be made to either the control
port or the IPTV port.
http://[ip_address]/satip.m3u = EIT information in m3u format
http://[ip_address]/LCNLIST = EIT information in JSON format
