Talk:DVB-S2

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

"Unlike DVB-S, it does not rely on MPEG-2 encoding alone, but allows more advanced encoding, like H.264 (a.k.a. MPEG-4 Part 10 or AVC) or VC-1."

The transmission standard (DVB-S) shouldn't specify anything else except the transmission of an MPEG2-Transport Stream. This transport stream could contain anythin from MPEG2 video/audio packets to MPE (IP data) or H.264, or anything else. H.264 can be transported with DVB-S1, DVB-C, DVB-T and of course DVB-S2, or even completly other way (ASI, on a harddisk, network, ...).

Removed this text as it is not directly related to DVB-S2:

Together with the new modulation, the video codec used has also been changed from MPEG-2 to H.264 (a.k.a. MPEG-4 Part 10 or AVC) and is therefore more bandwidth efficient.

I am wondering about calculation between symbol and data rates in dvb-s2. Standard dvb-s calculation is SR=(DR/(<modulationfactor>*FEC*188/204)) where reed solomon correction=188/204.

--Makrisj Where is the standard DVB-S used today? apart from a small reference, no block diagram, no explanation on theory of operation of QPSK, I believe we have gone too far ahead...

[edit] DVB-S

Where is the original article about DVB-S? Disappeared? This is just about DVB-S2, "(Redirected from DVB-S)" to DVB-S2? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.156.178.119 (talk) 19:13, 29 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Renaming "DVB-H and DVB-SH" article back to "DVB-H"?

Please add your vote or comment to the discussion regarding the name of the "DVB-H and DVB-SH" article, previously named "DVB-H". See Talk:DVB-H_and_evolution_to_DVB-SH#Moving_back_to_DVB-H. Mange01 (talk) 09:48, 6 February 2008 (UTC)
