Contemporary Research 6 QMOD-SDI
In most applications, the basic settings on the previous page will work fine with all displays. Of course, there
are exceptions to every rule that often arise with older displays with archaic firmware, which is why we offer
a variety of encoder options and settings. A few examples include:
Older LG sets need to see the MPEG stream encoded at 18 Mbps (19.4 Mbps total).
Newer displays don’t need channel data, older sets need to see the CVCT data table.
Some displays want to see certain PMT data, while most ignore almost all values.
These adjust the overall quality of encoding
The settings are 1-4, with 2 as the default.
This adjusts the quality of the encoded video, in M bits per second. For typical HD
satellite/cable, 18 the best solution, as the receiver’s video output rarely exceeds 12 Mbps,
and old and new display tuners will tune that in. For very good HD video sources, such as
from HDTV studio feeds on SDI or Component, 25 may produce visible improvement. Note
that some older display tuners don’t expect to see a video stream larger than 19.4, and you
may need to go down to 18 for those sets. The lower settings are for special applications and
are rarely used in normal systems.
- 11, 13, 15, 18 (default ) , 25 Mbps
When you work with a variety of displays, old and new, you may need to change the settings
below to assure all tune the channels equally. The settings below select the type of
metadata included in the MPEG video stream.
Program Map Table Presets. This setting includes four presets that include various minor data
we’ve used in past installations. When a display can’t scan the channel, and you know the
other RF settings are valid, try changing the PMT type. This setting is also useful when most
of the sets tune in fine, except for few. Some Samsung sets prefer 3.
0-3 (0 is default)
Default Cable Virtual Channel Table
On - Turns on virtual channel and short name in MPEG stream, if present
Changes QMOD display Channel to virtual channel
An “*” will appear at the end of the channel if it is virtual
Off - Turns off CVCT da
ta, changes displ
ay back to Channel: <Physical>.1
Tip: Turn off CVCT when creating virtual channel, then turn on when complete. TVs will need
to re-scan to find the channel
Event Information Table
On, Off (Default)

Time/Date is fixed. May affect TV’s time and date.
Few displays need this data, generally keep off
Must have encoder firmware 02E7 firmware to operate
- 4:3 presents with black borders on either side
- 16:9 presents as full widescreen video
This sets the MPEG program number from the default 1 to a value up to 999. See page 9.
