About

About Starfish Technologies Limited Starfish Technologies Ltd, a pioneer in transport stream processing, will use its NAB presence to highlight how its innovative software products can deliver valuable functionality and flexibility to support new revenue opportunities. Starfish software is now installed in more than 1,000 live channels around the world. Central to the Starfish philosophy is to avoid re-encoding media content wherever possible. Its TS processing products are scalable from single channel to high density installations running on generic COTS hardware or in the cloud. Typifying this philosophy is the TS Splicer, for clean switching of content in transport streams encoded as HEVC/H.265, H264 and MPEG2, and supporting SD, HD and UHD media resolutions. It is used for replacing live and pre-recorded content for advertising insertion, localisation of content, adding and removing ad insertion markers, decoding in stream SCTE35 markers, processing parental control identifiers, and adding channel logos. All this with a very low propagation delay. It also supports SMPTE 2022-7 for seamless input protection of redundant source signals. Starfish Technologies Ltd is also recognised as the world leader in Video Description/Audio Description technology. Media Stream Processing Transport Stream splicing, switching, and processing used in applications such as advertising insertion and stream preparation for OTT platforms and traditional TV delivery. Next generation splicing technology offering GOP boundary or frame accurate splicing with minimal propagation delay. Transport Stream Switching, SCTE35 and DAI ad break marker processing, logo and watermark insertion and audio channel processing.World leaders in Audio Description technology. We offer a complete product range that will provide significant efficiency savings when creating and processing Audio Description ready for transmission, in either a manually controlled or automated workflow.
