MViP-II
IP Based Multi-Image Display & Monitoring Solution
Revision 1.2 Page - 1
1. OVERVIEW
MViP-II is an IP based multi-image display & monitoring solution targeted at applications where simple
and efficient monitoring of audio and video from an IP transport stream is required. It leverages industry
leading AVM (Audio/Video Monitoring) technology from the MVP®to determine faults with the audio and
video at the baseband level.
MViP-II has been developed to be used as a tool for digital headends, IPTV networks, and sites using IP
for distribution with a requirement to monitor and display audio and video along with fault information and
transport details on a simple-to-configure DVI based monitor.
MViP-II supports all major video compression standards, and therefore can be used in almost any
application where video and audio are being transported over IP. MViP-II is SNMP-enabled, which allows
VistaLINK®PRO to configure and store all monitoring values and alarms.
Features & Benefits
•Supports video compression formats: MPEG-2, H.264/AVC
•Supports audio compression formats: MPEG-1, MPEG-2, AC-3, AAC, Dolby E
•Up to 8 audio program decode Stereo or Dolby 5.1
•Dual output resolution up to 4K
•Audio monitoring output
•Decoded video can be displayed multiple sizes up to full screen on the multiviewer outputs
•Decoded and display up to 9 different DVB subtitle or caption per program.
•Simple and easy to use on screen user interface
•Stream capture based on fault
•Remote access using VNC software to MViP-II
•Supports all major transport: UDP, RTP, HLS, LSS, HDS, MPEG-DASH, MMSH, MMST, RTMP
Advanced Monitoring

•Audio Monitoring: Low, High, Loudness monitoring
•Closed captioning, DVB/teletext subtitling and XDS metadata decode and Monitor
•MPTS/SPTS bandwidth information display
•Macroblock detection
•Loudness Monitoring
•SCTE-35 status monitoring
•TR101290 monitoring via 7880TSM-IP or 3480TSM-IP
