MPEG test streams for video compression testing and evaluation
Vclips™ are a diverse set of short video clips designed to test video encoders and decoders to the limits of their abilities. The Encoder series is a set of uncompressed YUV clips designed to test and 'stress' encoders in many ways. The Decoder series is compressed to different video standards and tests video decoders not only to the limits of the video standard concerned, but also in their response to errors in encoded bitstreams. Functional tests check every allowable mode of the video standards. Error tests check the decoder response to deliberate bitstream errors.
Tclips are streams to test receivers across a broad range of video and audio formats.

Multiplexer
Use the Multiplexer/Re-multiplexer/De-multiplexer application to create and modify multi-program Transport Streams with custom SI/PSI/PSIP information for DVB, ATSC, ISDB*, and MPEG compliant Transport Streams.
Carousel Generator
The Carousel Generator product is used for creating object carousel contents within an output Transport Stream. The Generator will create object carousels conforming to the MPEG-2, DVB, DTT (MHEG-5) or MHP standards.
