  • Best box/software for realtime MPEG2 compression with CC?

    Posted by Cathy Mayville on April 12, 2012 at 4:15 pm

    Hi! I use Avid, Final Cut and soon will use Premiere to edit :30 promos and long form docs for broadcast.
    I now need to deliver digital (MPEG2 ts’s) for broadcast. I also have to deliver MPEG2 ts’s for VOD and I
    HAVE to keep the CC intact (which comes to me embedded in HD and SD tapes, not as a separate file)

    I am going to NAB to look for a device (box? Software) that will allow me to play my sequence out in real time, then convert it to MPEG2 ts WITH CC, and will then distribute the files to various broadcasters for air and VOD.

    I am looking for some advice on what companies to talk to about NAB, that could help me accomplish this.
    My first guess is Telestream, but not sure they can help me. Anyone else? Thank you!

    Harmonic comes to mind as well in that field.
