Starfish highlights flexible TS Splicer releases and new Monitoring Dashboard at NAB Show

Starfish Technologies will present the latest releases of its TS Splicer (Win) and TS Splicer (K8) at NAB Show 2026, together with a new Monitoring Dashboard designed to give operators greater operational oversight across their deployments.

TS Splicer has a wide range of functionality for processing encoded media streams, including clean switching of live feeds, ad replacement, regional program substitution, SCTE-35 processing and logo insertion. It operates with MPEG-2, H.264 and HEVC/H.265 streams across SD, HD and UHD services, and includes support for SMPTE 2022-7 input protection. The capabilities are extensive and include numerous refinements developed in response to user feedback gathered over many years of supplying this technology.

The updated releases are designed for flexible deployment across on-premises, cloud and hybrid infrastructures. A single software installation provides access to a range of configurable options, which can be enabled or disabled remotely as operational needs change. This approach allows systems to scale or adapt without reinstalling or replacing the underlying platform.

Alongside the splicer updates, Starfish will demonstrate its new Monitoring Dashboard. The dashboard provides a consolidated view of running services and system status, helping engineering teams supervise distributed environments more efficiently and respond quickly to operational changes.

Starfish transport stream processing is delivered as a suite of software applications running on Windows servers, as TS Splicer (Win), or within Kubernetes environments as TS Splicer (K8) A comprehensive REST API supports integration with automation, control and monitoring systems. Starfish solutions are currently deployed in more than 1,000 live channels worldwide.

“Our customers want transport stream processing that is straightforward to deploy, simple to manage and flexible enough to evolve,” said Peter Blatchford, CMO at Starfish Technologies. “By installing the software once and enabling functionality as required, operators can add and remove features quickly and easily. Combined with the new Monitoring Dashboard, it gives them both control and visibility across their services.”
