We now have support for an additional Open Source MHEG-5 stack, the RedButton standalone MHEG-5 engine.
Again I’ve included 3 sample screen shots of the RedButton engine in action. The video window is empty as we are running the engine in a debug mode.

It appears that the new NZ DVB-S multiplex on 12483000 H 22500000 3/4 is actually carrying some valid MHEG-5 data. I’ve enabled the MHEG support in debug mode on a test environment to see what would show up. The attached log file contains all of the output.
Now there appears to be an EPG application burried […]
