StreamSleuth-LG is a Digital TV Transport Stream Analyzer and HDTV Tuner & DVR all in one. The OnAir Creator, bundled with TS Reader Professional is a software program developed by Coolstf.com that converts the unit into professional diagnostic test equipment.

It is utliized by TV broadcast engineers to allow them to do broadcast transport stream analysis and monitoring. This product was developed at the request of engineers and attests to the quality of the consumer product.

The OnAir Creator
This HDTV/SDTV/Analog receiver is based upon the LG 5th Generation ATSC/NTSC/QAM tuner and connects to the USB 2.0 port of your laptop/desktop PC. When used in conjunction with the bundled software (TS Reader Professional from CoolSTF) your laptop/desktop PC is transformed into a Digital TV Broadcast Stream Analyzer!

	TSReader Professional (included) TSReader is the powerful Stream Analysis software for analyzing Over-The-Air and Cable (QAM) Digital TV. It is perfect for the broadcast engineer who wants to analyze the data stream of their transmission without spending tens of thousands of dollars.
	The OnAir HDTV Program (included) This application allows you to view streams as a consumer would see them, and in addition provides useful DVR functionality. It includes support for both Digital TV (OTA and unencrypted QAM) as well as Analog TV (OTA and Cable.)

TSREADER Features:

Basic Features:

Decodes MPEG-2 tables with DVB, ATSC and Digicipher II extensions
Decodes unscrambled MPEG-2 video in thumbnail format
Decodes unscrambled MPEG-4 and H.264 video in thumbnail format
Decodes unscrambled VC-1 video in thumbnail format
Thumbnails can be exported as they are generated to JPEG files for remote monitoring via a web browser
High speed parallel PMT parser
Parallel video decoding (high end CPUs recommended)
Parses MPEG, A/52 (AC3) and DTS audio streams to show bitrate/mode settings
Indicates CC/DTVCC streams for ATSC streams and VBI/Teletext/Subtitle/WSS/VPS on DVB muxes
Supports a wide range of MPEG-2 hardware input and output devices
Transport streams can also be fed from a file
Records the transport stream to a disk file
Records an individual program to a disk file with PAT/PMT regeneration into files with a very flexible file naming scheme
Decodes IP/DVB transmissions in MPE format with decodes of the MAC and IP destination addresses
Can save the payload from TCP and UDP transmissions and act as a multicast UDP/IP/DVB router
Generates PID usage graph with percentage displays for each PID
Displays actual bitrate on PIDs carrying PCR and estimated bitrates for non PCR carrying PIDs
PID graph is color coded to indicate unscrambled and scrambled PIDs
Counts continuity and TEI errors on mux and PID-by-PID basis
Variable resolution real-time or average charting
Table report generation into HTML
Export mux information to XML
EPG data export to XMLTV format for use with myHTPC and other HTPC frontends
Automatic transport stream recording and export for unattended operation
Control over D-VHS decks for unattended HDTV recording (Windows XP)
Supports plugins written for MultiDec
Manually defined channels can be added to any multiplex
Record PIDs from a mux either as separate files or combined in their received order
Multiple card support in a single system with qualified drivers
TCP/IP based remote control server to allow TSReader to be operated remotely by other software
Graphing capability
EPG grid for DVB and ATSC networks
Record scheduling from EPG Grid using the standard Windows Scheduler
Video mosaic shows all video streams in the mux
Archiving mode - records all programs from all or some channels within a mux
Profiles - different configurations for TSReader allowing multiple instances to run simultaneously
EPG server to provide programming information to other TSReaders running in archiving mode
Closed Caption (EIA-608) decoder for caption monitoring
Stream monitor function with alarms (ETR 290 style)
UDP Forwarder - routes programs or the entire mux to UDP unicast/multicast
Custom descriptor decoding

Stream Analysis

Find PIDs in a mux quickly even if the MPEG-2 tables aren't correct
Analyze new transmissions and get all the pertinent technical information about the mux in just a few seconds
Record free-to-air SD and HD programs directly to the hard drive
Record free-to-air HD programs directly to D-VHS decks
Record the entire mux and later use TSReader as a demultiplexor to pull out the individual programs

Stream Monitoring

Detects if an encoder is running correctly or how much bandwidth is being wasted on null or ghost packets
Monitors JPEG thumbnails of free-to-air MPEG video to verify correct encoder operation
Exports automatically DVB tables for real-off-air stream verification
Transcodes the MPEG-2 stream in real-time with VLC to MPEG-4 and then streaming over the Internet - allows remote monitoring of the transmitted stream anywhere in the world

Stream Viewing

Stream free-to-air HD over Firewire to D-VHS decks for real-time decoding with no CPU load and no DirectShow filter issues
Watch free-to-air SD live on the XBox with XBox Media Player
Streams to VLC which can decode for playback, transcode for Internet streaming and a whole variety of other neat things
Streams video over a network to a Roku HD-1000 HDTV player. Capable of handling MPEG-2 HD streams up to about 50 Mbps

Computer Requirements

WindowsXP-based PC
800 MHz or faster processor to insure packets aren't lost with SD streams
2.5 GHz or faster for HD
A display with at least 1024 x 768 resolution (TSReader Professional will not display correctly with lower resolution displays)
