Wohler To Showcase Monitoring Solutions At NAB

Wohler has announced it will showcase its MPEG Series DVB-ASI and IPTV monitors at this year's NAB Show in Las Vegas. The MPEG Series enables a single operator to monitor all video streams from a single system and interface.

"Uniting the functionality of four discrete monitoring systems into one solution, our MPEG Series products address broadcasters' need to minimise the space and power requirements of their monitoring operations while maintaining the utmost flexibility in handling video signals," said John Terrey, vice president sales at Wohler.
"Taking the place of an IRD feeding into a video monitor, audio monitor, and an MPEG analyser, MPEG Series monitors offer a highly efficient and cost-effective alternative for monitoring video signals in a wide array of formats."
Wohler MPEG monitors decode and provide monitoring of program content from MPEG-2/4 ASI and Ethernet IP streams, as well as SD/HD/3G-SDI inputs. The MPEG video monitors identify, decode, and display both MPEG-2 and MPEG-4 signals (input via BNC or Ethernet) in high resolution while giving users the ability to browse the PAT, PMT, PID, EIT, and NIT data (both ATSC and DVB tables) for each selected stream. In addition to MPEG ASI and dual-input 3G/HD-SDI with loop-through, the MPEG monitors accommodate HDMI video and audio with level meters, GPI, and tally.
Monitoring capabilities include Dolby Digital and Digital+ decoding, as well as the capacity to decode as many as 12 audio groups. In-picture level metering of up to 16 audio channels is provided for both average and PPM (peak) levels with selectable meter scales. Throughout the 2014 NAB Show, Wohler will feature the MPEG-4290, a 4-RU system with two 9-inch screens; the MPEG-3270, a 3-RU system with two 7-inch screens; and the 2-RU MPEG-2443 with four individual 4.3-inch screens.
