Which EEG Products Can Inject SCTE-35 Messages Into An MPEG Transport Stream?

Which EEG products can inject SCTE-35 messages into an MPEG Transport Stream?

Along with live closed caption encoding capabality, the iCap Alta system contains a full SCTE-35 injection system for placing triggers into the incoming transport stream (IP unicast or multicast). 

The triggers can be requested by any system using the SCTE-104 API over TCP/IP, through a configurable port on the iCap Alta instance.

Alta supports the full SCTE-104 "Simple Profile" - this profile includes Splice Requests, Splice Null Requests, and Time Signal Requests, with any number of DTMF Descriptors, Avail Descriptors, Segmentation Descriptors, and other proprietary/opaque descriptors. Alta does not currently support "component-mode" splices, encrypted triggers, or the schedule mode messages, but may in the future.

Please refer to the notes in the previous question about SCTE-104 insertion for more information about compatibility between EEG and other vendor devices, and the SCTE-104 TCP/IP API in general.
