IP Transcoders

BTR-6000

High-density IP transcoder for HEVC, AVC and MPEG-2 streams up to 4K

The BTR-6000 converts live IP streams between H.265/HEVC, H.264/AVC and MPEG-2 in real time — up to 4K — so you can deliver every channel at the right codec and bitrate for your network. Redesigned hardware and software deliver broadcast-grade density and reliability for IPTV head-ends.

Overview

The VIZOBOX BTR-6000 is an IP-to-IP transcoder that converts and adapts live streams between codecs and protocols for flexible content delivery. Built around a high-performance processing platform, it transcodes up to 1x 4K (2160p60), 8x HD or 32x SD in H.265/HEVC, and up to 16x HD or 32x SD in H.264/AVC, with resolutions from 96x96 to 4096x2160 and bitrates from 200 kbps to 20 Mbps. Integrated re-multiplexing provides PSI/SI editing, PID remapping, PCR auto-correction and up to 200 MPTS/SPTS outputs, while 1+N stream backup and a web-based GUI keep operation dependable and simple.

Highlights

  • H.265/HEVC transcoding up to 1x 4K (2160p60), 2x 4K (2160p30), 8x HD (1080p30) or 32x SD (576p25)
  • H.264/AVC transcoding up to 16x HD (1080p30) or 32x SD (576p25) — e.g. HD-to-HD bitrate reduction while keeping the format
  • Wide codec support: H.265/HEVC, H.264/AVC, MPEG-2 and MPEG-4 video; multi-audio transcoding with AC3 passthrough or stereo encoding with lip-sync
  • Integrated re-multiplexer with PSI/SI editing, PID passthrough/remapping and PCR auto-correction
  • Up to 200 MPTS/SPTS output streams at up to 100 Mbps each, with 1+N output stream backup
  • Rolling subtitle, logo and text insertion plus local file playback for info channels — all managed via web interface
