Scopus Video Networks' debuted its Integrated Receiver Processor (IRP) platform at IBC2008. It is a versatile multiformat receiving/decoding/processing platform for cable, satellite, terrestrial, and IPTV operations.
The IRP platform targets broadcasters' requirements for handling multiformat HD/SD content, MPEG-2/H.264 decoding, transport stream descrambling, IP edge streaming, ASI aggregation, remultiplexing, transmodulation, HD-to-SD downconversion, and more.
Additionally, the IRP platform incorporates a multiplexing core that enables grooming and PSIP aggregation of multiple HD and SD programs for digital content distribution. This all-in-one architecture eliminates the need for an external multiplexing device.
