Visual Europe Supplies MPEG ASI Conditioning Solution To YooMedia

YooMedia PLC, the independent interactive entertainment group, has installed Transflow units from Visual Europe into its London Head Office.
The compact 1RU boxes are being used to stabilise ASI streams being fed into the UK DTT network. A main and reserve unit provide redundancy and allow YooMedia to remove any unwanted packets from their output.
Very low data rates on some services being provided to the DTT muxes had lead to problems in the integrity of the ASI data. The Transflow unit allows YooMedia to pre-condition the signals being fed into the multiplexor prior to transmission over a 10MB/s IP link.
Signals from their in-house iTV data carousel are pre-conditioned though Transflow leading to efficiencies in signal transmission, improved quality of services and less continuity count and other errors introduced by alternative capping methods. Consequently the delivery of live interactive content is optimised prior to transmission. By carefully managing expensive bandwidth Transflow can also significantly reduce operating costs.
