MPEG Test
RF, IP & MPEG Monitoring and Diagnostics solutions for Equipment Manufacturers and Video Service Providers
With the advent of digital and HDTV, the interplay between cable companies and broadcasters has become more critical than ever. Viewers now expect a flawless, high-quality HD experience at all times. A key part of delivering a quality experience is finding the root cause of problems in the transport stream. Tektronix Emmy award winning MPEG expertise is known for its ability to capture and "deep dive" to get to the root of a problem in an MPEG multiplex. From Generation to Monitoring and Analysis, Tektronix helps you to validate equipment designs, install and monitor your video networks and insure superior QoS.
MPEG Generators
In the lab, on the manufacturing floor or in the field you can quickly verify correct design operation and compliance to standards using a Tektronix portable MPEG Generator. A suite of test streams are provided on all MPEG generators and you can add Multiplexer software to create a complete stream creation and generation tool set to support a variety of applications.
MPEG Analyzers
Tektronix MPEG Analysis tools are the industry standard for MPEG stream analysis and testing. A key part of delivering a quality experience is finding the root cause of problems in the transport stream. Tektronix MPEG Analysis tools allow you to go as deep as you need into the transport and elementary streams to track down sources of picture anomalies or Transport Streams with errored syntax.
MPEG Software Tools
Tektronix MPEG Software Tools allow you to go as deep as you need into the transport and elementary streams to track down sources of picture anomalies or Transport Streams with errored syntax.

Measuring Video and Audio Quality of Experience (QoE)This application note shows you how to objectively rate a program at different points in the network to understand and pinpoint when and where degradation has occurred. |
Solving Intermittent Transport Stream Problems with CaptureVu TechnologyCaptureVu technology allows you to set an error break point on an incoming real time or stored MPEG transport stream. By setting specific conditions for CaptureVu technology you allow the analyzer to find intermittent problems for you, trigger a recording to memory, or stop analysis to allow you to drill down to the route cause of an issue quickly and efficiently. |
A Layman's Guide to PCR MeasurementsProgram Clock References (PCRs) provide the means for a digital TV receiver to lock its decoded video output to the video source present at the input to an encoder. The subject of PCR measurement is often misunderstood. This technical brief describes impairments that affect the PCR and appropriate.. |
A Guide to MPEG Fundamentals and Protocol AnalysisMPEG is one of the most popular audio/video compression techniques because it is not just a single standard. Instead, it is a range of standards suitable for different applications but based on similar principles. MPEG is an acronym for the Moving Picture Experts Group. |
Troubleshooting Quality of Service (QoS) and Quality of Experience (QoE) issues in Video Service Provider NetworksLearn the benefits and faults of the two most common test methods for troubleshooting video signal problems and the critical capabilities needed in an MPEG analyzer. |

A Guide to IPTV: The Technologies, the Challenges and How to Test IPTVDespite the maturation of the enabling technologies, the deployment of IPTV services presents many technical implementation challenges. This Primer explores some of those challenges and how Test & Measurement equipment can be used to facilitate the design, rollout and management of IPTV networks and services. |
PCR Measurements PrimerEngineers and technicians who monitor or measure video parameters must have confidence in the results. We describe in this primer a new procedure for jitter measurements as recommended in TR 101 290. |
Testing Video Transports Streams Using TemplatesThe addition of template testing makes Tektronix test systems, such as the MTM400, a very powerful and cost-effective way of applying scheduled service and related tests to specific target probe points. Transmission-chain errors can be detected and pinpointed promptly by strategically.... |
