A typical TV program will contain 4 PID’s, including: Video PID, Audio PID, Program Mapping Table (PMT) PID, Program Association Table (PAT) PIDThe S300-Pro or S300CA will need to be configured to pass each of these PID’s to the correct IP address onthe LAN.Also, it should be pointed out that the S300 provides an Ethernet output (not a video output). It thereforecannot generally be connected directly to your TV. You can, however, pass the Ethernet signal to an MPEG-over-IP set top box (which would be used to drive video to your TV), or you can view the TV program(s)directly on your PC using a software video player, such as VLC.To configure the S300-Pro or S300CA for watching TV, please do the following:1.

To do this, go to the Video Content Screen (Refer to Section 4.3.1) and click onthe Complete TS radio button. You will also need to add the multicast IP address and portnumber that the stream will be sent to. In the Video Content Screen, you can expand the
