Software Modules


Configuration Manager Module CMM
3D Subtitle Encoder Module BLE3D - NEW

The 3D Subtitle Encoder Module produces left and right eye images and then encodes these in the appropriate output format for Open or DVB bitmap HD subtitles.

Configuration Manager Module CMM

The CMM is the heart of the Polistream system and acts as the master controller for all other software modules. The CMM manages the Configuration Database and acts as the central contact point for all users. Includes the Configuration Client software which can be used by any number of users to access and configure the system. The CMM can be dual redundant when two or more U4000 units are present.

Channel Server Module CSM

The CSM manages all subtitle activity on a single program channel. One CSM can manage multiple subtitle languages of any type, subtitle playout and live subtitling sources.


Automation Interface Module AIM

The AIM provides an interface to the wide range of automation systems supported by Polistream
List of automation suppliers and interfaces supported.

Bitmap Encode Module BLE

The Encoder Module provides the rendering and encoding of subtitle text into Open, DVB, Imitext and SCTE-27 formats.
Now supportsHD resolution in both 1080i and 720p format bitmaps for Open and DVB to the ETS300 743 V1.3.1 standard
Configuration Manager Module CMM
Teletext Encoder Module TXT

The TXT module provides for the encoding of subtitles and closed captions into Teletext, OP-42, EIA-608, EIA-708, Nufor and OP-47 formats.



Time Code Input Module TIM

The TIM module in conjunction with one channel of a VBI2 card provides VITC or DVITC input for timing the playout of subtitles from subtitle files by a CSM.


VBI Input Module VID

The VID module in conjunction with one channel of a VBI2 card or a VANC-1 card provides decoding of Teletext, EIA-608, EIA-708 or SCTE-27 data for use within a Polistream system. Data can be extracted from analogue, SD a and HD SDI signals. Uses include subtitle and closed caption retiming and insertion, Subtitle and caption transcoding to other subtitle formats or for monitoring purposes.

DVB Teletext Module DVBT

Generates DVB Teletext compliant stream for the direct insertion of Teletext subtitles into a DVB transport stream.


Configuration Manager Module CMM
Teletext Gateway Module TXTG

The TXTG provides an interface to the TSS alpha Teletext system.


Subtitle Retiming Module SRM

The SRM allows DVB subtitles to be received, retimed and retransmitted. This is used where DVB services are delayed, format converted or re multiplexed for cable and terrestrial services.

Imitext Transcode Module ITM

The ITM transcodes Imitext subtitles into either DVB or open formats. This is used to support pass through channels with legacy Imitext subtitle services.



NEW -Program Map Table Module PMT

The PMT Module creates or modifies a PMT table to match additions or changes to the subtitle or data content of a transport stream. This allows a Polistream system to correctly modify a transport stream in either ASI or UPD-IP format without the need for a separate multiplexer.



Opt Out Trigger Module OPT

The OPT module supports the insertion of trigger signals into the broadcast chain using inverted of non-inverted Teletext via a T3000 inserter. This is used to provide downstream triggering for the insertion of local programming or advertisements.



UDP Transmit Module UDPTX

The UDPTX module delivers a transport stream of DVB subtitle and other data via a UDP unicast or multicast stream over an IP link. Used in IPTV and IP based systems in place of physical ASI interfaces.


VANC Teletext Module VANCT
UDP Receive Module UDPRX - SPTS

The UDPRX-SPTS module receives a single program (SPTS) DVB transport stream with a single PCR timing reference and other data via a UDP unicast or multicast stream over an IP link. Used in IPTV and IP based systems in place of physical ASI interfaces.
UDP Receive Module UDPRX - MPTS

The UDPRX-MPTS module receives a multi program (MPTS) DVB transport stream with several PCR timing references and other data via a UDP unicast or multicast stream over an IP link. Used in IPTV and IP based systems in place of physical ASI interfaces.
VANC Teletext Module VANCT

Generates VANC data packets using OP-47, Nufor or private data formats for inserting subtitle and other data into an HD-SDI signal. One required per channel.
