  • FEC: occasionally in Contribution workflows it is necessary to increase the security of the data transportation, Forward Error Correction (FEC) will retrieve lost information; even if some parts if the video stream are damaged.
  • AFD: Active Format Description (AFD) is a standard set of codes that can be sent from the Encoder to the Set-top Box in the MPEG video stream to carry information about the aspect ratio and active picture characteristics.
  • Private Labelling: we can help build your brand with a custom front panel designed to deliver the image you want to project, all you have to do is send us your image file and we do the rest.
