7.2 Media Processing Module - MPM1 HD/SD Transcoder
(SPR/HWO/MPM1)
The MPM1 Transcoder Card has a unique processing engine that extracts the
maximum efficiency possible from the MPEG-2 and H.264 specifications.
The media processing module is a single slot solution which can transcode multiple
MPEG-2 and/or H.264 video streams, at both SD and HD resolutions. Audio pass-
through and transcode functionality is also supported.
Figure 7.1 Media Processing Module
The total maximum number of transcodes per module is related to the resolution.
At SD resolution, each MPM1 can perform 12 simultaneous transcodes.
Each transcode involving a HD-resolution stream on input and/or output reduces the
number of possible SD transcodes by 3.
