Instruction Manual

• PES header contain information about the contents of the PES packet.

• Variable length packets typically up to 64 Kbyte but may be longer

• PTS and DTS allow a decoder to reconstruct the video from I, Band P frames sent by

encoder.

• If header information is corrupted, entire PES packet will be lost.

• Fixed Length packets, multiplexes many PES packets.

• Program Identifier (PID) contains information to find, identify and reconstruct

program contents

• Continuity Counter (CC) – 4 bit counter to detect loss or out of sequence packets

• Program Clock Reference (PCR) – clock reference to time sync the video and audio

• Sync byte set the start of a TS packet and allows synchronization

• Transport Error Indicator indicates a TS packet error
