A high performance, real-time video decoding solution.

The Cobalt® BBG-1190-DEC-MPEG Standalone MPEG4 AVC and MPEG2 Decoder with ASI and IP Inputs and SDI Outputs provides a high performance real-time MPEG-2 and MPEG-4 SD and HD video decoding solution. Its design is practically future proof and decodes traditional video formats such as UDP and RTP (MPEG Transport Stream) as well as Internet and Mobile formats such as RTMP (Adobe® Flash) and HLS (Apple® HTTP Live Streaming). In addition to full remote control/monitoring via DashBoard™ software, the advanced front panel display/user interface allows initial and basic configuration setup without needing a computer or connection to remote control.

The BBG-1190-DEC-MPEG supports newer cameras that output RTMP and security cameras that output RTSP. Its low power design saves on operating expenses. IP and DVB-ASI input streams are supported, with outputs as ASI, DVB-ASI, SDI, HDMI, and CVBS (for SD streams) using MPEG4 AVC or MPEG2 decoding. The BBG-1190-DEC-MPEG can decode from several audio codecs and provides Dolby® pass-thru. SMPTE-2038 processing allows de-embedding SMPTE-2038 generic ancillary data packets.

Low-profile packaging fits 1 RU installations. Full user DashBoardâ„¢ remote control allows full status and control access locally or across a standard Ethernet network. A complete SNMP MIB is also included.
