Question and Answers

Question:
1) Good day, I'm interested in this solution for a hotel, the TVs (476 units) are Samsung Hospitality type without an Ethernet port, some IP to HDMI needs to be in place also. Thank you in advance 2)They want to have at least HD definition, they want to use the HMDI input of the TV, there's a Giga ethernet LAN in a site intended for the distribution of the content (copper and fiber). All receivers in their headend have HDMI output, they are thinking on 24 channels + 1 hotel channel (hotel information, schedule, tourism). The image below pretty much describes what I'm looking for, they have the content, the network, and the TVs, the missing part is the Encoding/Streaming/Decoding part. 3) Yes, exactly. IP to Hdmi on each TV and H.264 compression.

Answer:
1)So the TV's all require RF coaxial cable correct? How many channels total? What is going to be the source of those channels, commercial set-top boxes? 2) We have various formats and options for RF modulation. Please let me know what is the standard that you require: QAM, ATSC, ISDBT, DVBT, etc Mpeg 2 or H264? 3) So you plan on putting an IPTV set-top box on every television? For IP input and HDMI output correct? For 24 channels you plan on using H264 compression? So, in this case the best product would be 24 HDMI H.264 MPEG4 Encoder H-HDPerformux-24, it encodes 24 HDMI sources for 24 SMPT's Multicast TS UDP streams. The IP STB will receive the streams and display them as an HDMI Video output, Those channels will be programmed into the IP STB and using the remote control you will access all your 24 TV programs on each STB on the network. This is the link to the IP-STB https://thorbroadcast.com/es/producto/compacto-ip-del-decodificador-set-top-box.html

Question:

I'm looking for 4 channel HEVC encoder with SDI input

Answer:

Hello, we only have HEVC H.265 with HDMI inputs right now

would you use something like this with converters?

https://thorbroadcast.com/product/4-8-16-24-hdmi-iptv-streaming-8230.html/214

H-HDPerformux-4+ 4 channel HDMI to IP HEVC H.264&H.265 Encoder Streamer

You could potentially use converters so long that they would be compatible with all the needs of transmitting data.

I assume you have 3GSDI feeds?

yes

so you'd have to make sure the converter can do 3G and HDMI to 1080p60

Even then, no telling if that would effect the unit

as far as timing? frame loss?

yeah all that. because a lot of those 3rd party converters will take short cuts to work, but not exactly a professional solution

so its a coin flip honestly.

so buy the cheapest converter I can find

so no encoders with native SDI input?

There might be some on the market, but we only have HDMI input models avaialble

They work really well, we just sold a ton of 24 HDMI input models, super high density

Question:

Our clients have questions that seem to be around the system being able to work via their existing distribution network. They advised they had CAT 6 cabling to all cabins earlier but there appears to be some mix messaging at the moment with the offshore team talking about a coax network.This is a prestigious project for us and I would assume it is for you too. The Kwame Nkrumah FPSO is a landmark project for Ghana and it’s good PR to be providing your solution on that vessel.

2)

Basically they have 2 distribution networks on the vessel:

An existing coax network they used in distributing the existing TV system signals to all cabins and common rooms

An cat 5 ethernet network they use in providing ethernet connectivity to all cabins and common rooms

The Engineer onboard wasn’t too sure of which network we intended to use but we clarified it was the CAT 5 network today. He however flagged up another concern we agreed to take away as an action to check with Thor Broadcasting.

Concern

Some of the existing CAT 5 cables are over 100m on a single run. The existing coax network appears to be amplified at certain points to avoid signal degeneration and so borrowing from the reason for this amplification on the coax network, they are asking how we plan to overcome potential signal issues on the long cat 5 runs.

Does the encoder compensate for this in any way? I proposed getting a switch with PoE ports is the usual solution for these sorts of problems but wanted to check if you are in agreement and if this conflicts with any protocols on your system? Please let me know what you think. I have attached a drawing with our proposed solution for context.

Answer:

So, if I understand correctly, your consumer would like to use the Coaxial network, not the IP network to distribute the video?

We will be happy to talk about all the technical aspects of the project and advise the best solution, we can provide modulators if needed.

please check those units :

4 channel HDMI to COAX

8 channel HDMI to Coax

or both

4Channel HDMI to COAX and IP at the same time :

https://thorbroadcast.com/product/4-hdmi-component-hd-to-coax-and-iptv-hd-8230.html/21

We will be happy to talk about all the technical aspects of the project and advise the best solution, we can provide modulators if needed.

2)Cat 5 is passing Ethernet, the ethernet is a digital signal, Ethernet devices always re-clocks the signal, it is easy to determine if the 100m is an issue or not, you would have a link on the switch or not.

The 100m is a maximum CAT5 that can run.

If you do not have a link then you need to put an ethernet switch somewhere in between, or you can use point to point optical transceivers like those below, by using them you can extend Ethenet of many Km:

https://thorbroadcast.com/product/10-100-1000-mbps-fast-and-gigabit-ethernet-over-1-fiber-media-8230.html

There is no CAT 5 amplifier, the ethernet doesn't have power like CATV RF

No, As I mentioned the Ethernet can not be stronger and weaker, it is a data stream signal

POE Switch does not do anything for this, POE switch can send DC power over the CAT 5 to power POE device like Camera, so you do not have to use external DC power supply, but it doesn't extend the range of the ethernet signal.

Question:

I have few questions about your IP Encoder product line

Answer:

I want to implement IPTV, we will be a small ISP that will start soon

We will reach our clients through fiber optics to their homes

We want to mount the necessary equipment on our node to offer IPTV service.

But we don't know at all what equipment we need

We want to contract legal channels such as FOX, HBO, Discovery, etc. to be able to offer our clients these packages.

But first we need the equipment.

What equipment could they offer us?

Could we have a small meeting by videoconference?

I could send you the invitation is through Microsoft Teams, you can access it from the web browser of your cell phone or computer.

We only want to know about the IPTV equipment solutions that they could offer us.

Do you have your own headend? Where are the sources coming from?

We have lot of encoders for IPTV, but distribution is another process.

https://thorbroadcast.com/product/8-hdmi-broadcast-encoder-iptv-streamer-and-asi-out-h-264-8230.html

We have HDMI or SDI, but we need to know the protocol fro video, MPEG2 or H264; then the streaming protocol like RTP UDP RTMP etc there are many variations in the resolution and audio codecs as well we need to know more information about

ok currently we don't have the headend ready, we are under construction.

We want to search for sources, but we want our sources completely legal so as not to have problems of transmission by content, but we do not know with whom we can talk about it.

Well that starts with which country you are in, you need to speak with somebody in the government who can help you a little, or contact the cable TV companies

Essentially you will have several issues, from building the headend, getting access to those channels, and then distribution. Of which you will need make some sort of encryption effort, supply customer with set top boxes, and also lease the fiber. If this is all in one location or building then it is easier.

I do not want to retransmit a signal from cable companies.

I want to buy my own signal and pass it right to my clients.

Oh I see, then you will have to contact those companies directly, setup agreements and lease out those channels like any other cable company

Very good chance that they can let you access those channels direct from satellites, so you would pay a fee, get an access card, or code, and then you can use an IRD with CAS to get that data from satellites.

However I will mention our company does not get involved in any of that. We make and sell headend equipment.

Question:

H-HDPerformux-16 unit. What is the best software to decode the encoded stream on a laptop or PC?

Answer:

You can use any program that can decode the protocol that you plan on using.

If its a more common protocol like UDP/ RTP/ RTSP then you can use something like VLC that is freeware.

Something like RTMP is commonly used with YouTube for live streaming.

There's no shortage of programs that can decode; really depends on how you plan on encoding the signal, then identifying that protocol in a software.

As for the best? That's more of personal preference. OBS is another Free program that plenty of people use.

If you want to pay for one, there are dozens of professional studio decoding options available.

So I would start with which protocol you plan on using to stream; then go from there.

Question:

Am in Africa(Uganda),i have 8 inputs that are to be distributed to 50 rooms. which equipment would you recommend for me to use, we used CAT 6 cables for all the rooms

Answer:

If you have cat6 then you would need an IPTV encoder; something like this:

https://thorbroadcast.com/product/8-hdmi-broadcast-encoder-iptv-streamer-and-asi-out-h-264-8230.html

This will intake 8 inputs HDMI then convert to IPTV streams.

At every room you will need a decoder to convert IP to HDMI for input into the televisions.

https://thorbroadcast.com/product/compact-ip-decoder-set-top-box.html

So if there is one TV in every room, then you will need 50 decoders.

Question:

Do you have equipment like "HDHomeRun "? input: DVT antenna ..(Inside your box multiple tuners (2, 4, or more) and then transform them in IPTV format for diffusion thru fast ethernet .. connected to our personal box ? the client will be android APP, installed on a smart TV or tv box with IPTV client.. your device will be remotely manageable to select the DVT sources on the 4 tuners

Answer:

Yes, we do RF to IP IPTV gateways, In the USA, CANADA, and MEXICO, you use the ATSC modulation standard.

The gateways have 8 or 16 DVB-T tuners and they can output UDP unicast or multicast stream for all TS's ( programs ) multiplexed on those Channels.

So, for example, if ATSC ch 50 has 4 Video/ Audio TS programs, we can output all of them, and as a TS

We do not re-encode the video audio we are just passing it from RF to IP

You can use any decoder supporting UDP multicast or unicast to decode those streams

so any of those devices would work for you
