Microsoft has certified RGB Networks’ Video Multiprocessing Gateway (VMG) as meeting the requirements of its Mediaroom IPTV software platform.
This certification verifies that the VMG, with its TCM transcoding module, successfully interoperates with Mediaroom servers and clients to transcode high-definition, standard-definition and picture-in-picture (PIP) programs in real time to pass through the Mediaroom IPTV platform in a reliable manner.
In addition to transcoding, the ability to clamp the rate of MPEG-4/H.264 signals from incoming satellite feeds allows the streams to be reliably delivered over DSL and fiber networks.
