[SatBroadcasting(tm)] Intorel's latest achievement is MONDVB.

MONDVB is a multi-purpose DVB solution for measuring, monitoring, and controlling DVB signals and IP equipment. It autonomously monitors everything you send and receive, regarding your specific needs. Core MONDVB functionality lays in stable and reliable measurement and logging of every aspect of DVB data flow — this allows system engineers to observe, in full detail, all events related to DVB signal streaming. Consequently, MONDVB provides the engineering team with up to a one year history of events and the possibility of detailed reporting, based on parameters defined by system engineer.

MONDVB is fully functional on almost any DVB platform, regardless of how different or special it is, and can be integrated with any DVB equipment using standard IP protocols. MonDVB is fully compliant with any DVB standard. MONDVB is built to address following issues:

• Centralized access to every broadcasting facility and every aspect of DVB process
• Real-time, automatic measuring, analyzing and reporting on every aspect of digital video broadcast
• Summary and detailed statistics for data input and output

The system is based on proven Visionic technology, well established in the satellite and broadcast industries, inheriting all of that technology's reliability and functionality. MONDVB has the capability to measure unlimited number of channels, satellites, or transport streams. Each measurement is completely user-definable and can be changed during normal operation. Depending on the system, the measured items can be distributed among one or more equipment chains. The measurements are then executed either serially in time (one after the other) on a single chain, or in parallel among connected equipment. The system engineer defines how (serial or parallel) and when each individual item will be measured. MON DVB has already been successfully implemented in SES Group, Delta and Brabant TV.
