The MCR6000 enables real-time live transcoding of internet audio streams, such as radio stations, and encapsulating them into MPEG-2 transport stream. Supporting MMS, R Access TSP, ShoutCast and IcyCast streaming servers and SMPEG-2, MP3, AAC,AACP,REAL and WMV codecs as input the MCR-6000 enables adding radiochannels to your offerings for a fraction of the current cost per channel.

The source will be transcoded to a fully DVB compliant transportstream with an individual program per source (PCR on Audio PID) and PSI tables insertion (PAT/PMT/SDT). Volume can be adjusted per source in addition to streambitrate, samplefrequency and volume.

Standard functionality includes email and local sound alert upon source failure or source switch over, daily error reporting via Email en SNMP Traps sending on connection failure or errors. Source Redundancy is standard with up to 3 sources per channel (source or filebased). 

• Up to 48 channels per 1RU unit

• Individual program per radio (PCR on Audio PID)

• PSI tables insertion (PAT/PMT/SDT)

• Supports audio re-sampling to a variety of frequencies and stereo to mono down sampling

• Source redundancy solution (3 sources per stream)

• Management via embedded Web server, external SNMP or local CLI

• Ideal for broadcast applications

• Optional ASI support for ease of integration

• Offers competitive price per channel
