Provisioning 78-4025112-01 Rev H0 87 10 In the Pid Map Value (PMV) field, enter the following guidelines:  For MPTS and data streams, no PMV value may be entered (PIDs are not remapped).  For SPTS and plant streams, the PMT PID value is determined by the following equation: – PMT PID = (PMV+1)*16 – All elementary stream PIDs will be incrementall based off the PMT PID calculation. 11 In the Data Rate field, enter values according to the following guidelines.  SPTS or MPTS Stream Type - No data rate may be entered. Playout rate is determined by timing recovery.  Data - A data rate should be selected to play out at a constant configured rate of 1-38812 Kbps and within the limitations of the output bandwidth of the QAM Output Channel.  Plant - A data rate should be selected to play out at a constant configured rate to include the SI data and within the limitations of the output bandwidth of the QAM Output Channel. 12 Click Apply. 13 Click Save. Notes:  When muxing 2 incoming MPTS streams to 1 output carrier (or when muxing 1 MPTS with 1 or more SPTSs), the operator is responsible for preventing PID conflicts and over-subscription of the carrier.  To prevent PID conflicts, the operator must know what PIDs are being sent down in each of the MPTS streams, and if there are conflicts, they must be fixed at the source device. When muxing an MPTS with SPTSs streams, the operator must carefully choose PMV values for the SPTS streams that do not cause PID conflicts between the remapped SPTS streams and the passed- through MPTS stream. (The PMV value determines the PMT PID of the remapped SPTS and all elementary stream PIDs immediately follow the PMT PID in order. The PMT PID = (PMV+1) *16.)  To prevent oversubscription of the carrier, the operator must know the maximum bitrates of all the services being mapped to the carrier and make sure the total bitrate can not exceed the capacity of the QAM carrier. Automated Video Stream Map Configuration Using advanced stream map generation, the operator can add multiple rows to the stream map simultaneously.
Chapter 4 Table-Based Video Specific Operation 88 78-4025112-01 Rev H0 To Configure Video Stream Map Using Base Rules 1 Navigate to the Maps page. 2 In the tree menu, select Video Stream Map. Result: The Stream Map Table is displayed. 3 In the Base rules window, enter the Base Value (base values are the initial values the operator wants as the very first row in the stream map). 4 In the Row Increment field, enter row increments for the desired parameters. An increment value of 0 will retain a parameter without increment for each row. Typically, increment value of 0 is used for IP address. 5 In the Channel Offset field, enter desired offset (determines the increment for the channel output). Example: Entering 10 in the UDP column of the Channel Offset row generates 10 entries in the stream map for each channel. Note: Base Rules can be used at the full-device, card, port or individual channel level. Channel Offset is "don’t care" when implementing Base Rules at the channel level. 6 In the Start QAM Channel field, enter the start and end QAM Channel. 7 Enter Row Start and Row End (defines rows the base values will be applied to). 8 Click Implement Rules.

Advanced Settings Advanced settings are useful for the following reasons:  restrict input sources  block PIDs  split streams, etc. Notes: The RF Gateway 1 default database includes a pre-configured video stream map for the advanced settings. The default settings accept any source IP addresses, do not block the PIDS, break MPTS streams into SPTS for dejittering, and do not ignore UDP port. The GUI can enable settings such as PCR PID Select, MPTS Dejitter and Blocked PID (only for MPTS streams). To Configure Advanced Settings 1 Navigate to the Maps page. 2 Expand the tree menu to select the desired QAM Channel.
Chapter 4 Table-Based Video Specific Operation 90 78-4025112-01 Rev H0 Result: The Stream Map Table is displayed. 3 Configure the basic settings for a stream map. Note: As you become an advanced user, basic and combined settings can be configured simultaneously. 4 Click Show Advanced Settings.
Provisioning 78-4025112-01 Rev H0 91 Result: The Advanced Settings window is displayed. 5 In the Source IP Address field, enter the source IP addresses you want your stream to listen to.  The default ‘0.0.0.0’ implies don’t care.  1 is primary  2 is secondary  3 is tertiary  4 is quaternary Note: If the device detects a stream which matches any of these three, it will pass it through. 6 In the Ignore UDP Port field, select True or False. Note: The Ignore UDP Port setting can potentially make the configuration of the GbE network easier because only the multicast IP address must be provisioned (i.e., remembered), but it assumes that only one stream on each multicast address will be present. Thus, care must be taken to ensure each MPTS has its own unique IP address. Failure to do this will result in problems such as over- subscription and dejittering issues. 7 In the PCR PID Select field, the user can choose the following for MPTS streams:  From PMT  First detected
Chapter 4 Table-Based Video Specific Operation 92 78-4025112-01 Rev H0 Notes: ï‚¡ We recommend a setting of From PMT. ï‚¡ More than 1 PID in a service may have PCR timestamps. If From PMT is selected, the RF Gateway 1 ignores all PCR timestamps except the PID specified in the PMT as the PCR PID. If First Detected is selected, the RF Gateway 1 determines the PCR reference PID by whichever PID it first receives a PCR timestamp on. 8 In the MPTS Dejitter field, the user can choose the following mode for MPTS Dejitter: ï‚¡ One Stream ï‚¡ Break Into SPTS ï‚¡ The Ref is 0 Notes: ï‚¡ If you have a stat-muxed stream, we recommend a setting of One Stream. ï‚¡ The Ref field specifies the service to use as program clock reference for the MPTS. Normally, this field has a value of 0 which indicates the system will use the PCR reference of the first PID received with a PCR timestamp. ï‚¡ An MPTS stream consists of multiple programs with each program having its own embedded PCR reference. For stat-muxed CBR MPTS streams, any of the PCR references may be used to properly dejitter the entire MPTS. However, if the MPTS is not CBR, the PCR in a program should only be used for dejittering that program. Therefore, the RF Gateway 1 supports splitting an MPTS into individual programs and dejittering each individually with its own PCR reference. ï‚¡ When creating an MPTS entry in the RF Gateway 1 Stream Map Table, it is very important that the Advanced Setting of MPTS Dejitter is set correctly. If the incoming MPTS stream has been created by a stat-mux device and has a Constant-Bit Rate (CBR) envelope, the dejitter mode setting should be set to One Stream. This setting keeps the stat-muxing intact and passes the CBR stream to the output. However, if the incoming MPTS is not stat-muxed and is simply rate-limited or rate-clamped, or if it is just a mux of VBR programs, the dejitter mode must be set to Break Into SPTS. The Break Into SPTS setting dejitters each program in the MPTS individually based on their own PCR. 9 In the Blocked PIDS field, the user can enter PMT PIDs of programs you want to block. The RF Gateway 1 does not support blocking individual audio or video. The stuffing PID is 8191. Note:
Provisioning 78-4025112-01 Rev H0 93 ï‚¡ If an MPTS entry is the only input stream routed to an output carrier, only the Null PID (8191) needs to be specified in the blocked PID list. (All others in the list should be set to -1 or removed.) However, if another MPTS or a SPTS is going to be provisioned to mux out on the same carrier as this MPTS, the PAT PID must be blocked by entering a 0 in the blocked PID list. Blocking the PAT PID causes the PAT to be generated by the RF Gateway 1 and includes all programs routed to that output. ï‚¡ Up to 32 blocked PIDs can be specified in the blocked PID list including unreferenced PIDs (e.g. PSIP or EMM PIDs) which are not present in the PAT. 10 Click Apply. 11 Click Save. Advanced Rules for Advanced Settings Using advanced stream map generation, the operator can modify multiple rows to the advanced settings on the stream map simultaneously. Note: We recommend working at the carrier level. 1 Navigate to the Maps page. 2 Expand the tree menu to select the desired QAM Channel. Result: The Stream Map Table is displayed.

Note: If you have a stat-muxed stream, we recommend One Stream. 9 Enter the starting and ending rows where you want your settings to be applied. 10 Click Implement Rules to apply settings. 11 Click Save. MPTS Pass-Through Mode of Operation Table based Video Operation can be used generically to enable MPTS Pass Through for broadcast applications. ï‚¡ Individual PIDs can be blocked as required in the Advanced Settings window. The PAT is blocked using default PID 0. ï‚¡ If TSIDs are provisioned and the PAT is not blocked, the RF Gateway 1 will pass through the incoming source stream as is. Note: TSIDs are entered individually for all streams if the PAT is blocked.
Chapter 4 Table-Based Video Specific Operation 96 78-4025112-01 Rev H0 Enabling UDTA In software version 6.04.XX, a new field has been added to the stream map which allows PSIP and EAS to merge. To enable UDTA, merging PSIP and EAS is required as the QAM TV tuners rely on PSIP information on the SI BASE PID 0x1FFB and EAS also comes in the same PID 0x1FFB. To enable this feature, a new stream map entry is added to specify a stream as PSIP or EAS. See screen below. This new field supports 3 possible values:  None  PSIP  EAS The default value for this field is None. Below are the constraints that need to be considered when configuring the RFGW to work in the UDTA environment.  For streams that do not need PSIP and EAS, merge must be set as None.  The PSIP setting is supported only for stream map entries configured as MPTS.  The EAS setting is supported only for stream map entries configured as DATA.  In case of replication of streams marked as PSIP or EAS, the streams should be marked as PSIP or EAS across all the channels where they are configured.  Only one PSIP and one EAS is allowed per QAM channel.  For entries configured as SPTS and Plant, this option will be disabled.
