Live MPEG Max CSE Encoder Service is used to control a MAX CSE encoder and view its
output as one of your Vision
2
Live Channels, this allows users to add a analogue video source such as a camera
to your Vision2 system. Once you have configured the Encoder you can use the Live channel it creates as a
source for a Record Service or for display as part of a Producer channel. PC and set-top box users can also
view this Live channel as part of the Live Channels list. The Live MPEG service uses an AMX MAX-CSE
encoder (FG2178-70) to provide the hardware encoding of video and audio signals into an MPEG-2 multicast
stream.
