Yes, but the LI TSS/TSM-2800 is a 18K+ "solution.."

And, "ATSC harmonization recommendattion" is moot:  you cannot use pids
below 48.  That's now in the a/53 spec and the code point document, the
program paradigm has been eliminated, and the harmonization recommendation
only applied to pids between 16 and 31.

While the -1000 Logic Innovations mux supports only the Triveni DSI (data
server interface), the -2800s support DVB-ASI, Ethernet and DSI interfaces.
Last I heard (I forgot to raise this matter with Phil England, LI's
engineering jefe last week), however, only the Ethernet port input permits
you to mux live table sections into the transport stream.  I do know that
using the DVB-ASI input for table sections (live and carouseling) was in
their "to-do" list, and is listed in their Remote Section Management
Protocol document.

BTW, the spelling is Triveni, not Trivini (or Trevino, as I once spelt it.)

I was wondering when/if they would address PSI, and am suprised to hear they
partially support DVB-SI: I wonder what the customer request was.

You can UNSUBSCRIBE from the OpenDTV list in two ways:

- Using the UNSUBSCRIBE command in your user configuration settings at 
FreeLists.org 

- By sending a message to: opendtv-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the word 
unsubscribe in the subject line.
