The IP/TV Broadcast Server

The IP/TV Broadcast Server This server handles the actual processing
of the streaming media, and distributes it to the destination based
upon the control information hosted in the Control Server. Each
Broadcast Server processes only one stream format per session. If you
need to present in MPEG-1 and MPEG-2 formats simultaneously, you’d
need one Broadcast Server for each media type.The Broadcast Server
accepts source input from many locations, including live feeds, a VCR
tape, DVD, and live recording in a local studio.
