The GuideBuilder SI system generates accurate DVB System Information (DVB-SI) data and provides an
intuitive interface for managing program event information. DVB-SI is the foundation for DVB
digital television transport streams—DVB-SI data is critical for important functions, such as DTV tuners
finding your services and programs being listed in electronic program guides (EPGs). EPG data carried
in the DVB-SI tables can hold guide data for many days/weeks and facilitate automatic recording of
programs in PVR devices.
GuideBuilder can import program data from many different sources, including listing services and
traffic systems, automation systems and SI data from off-air/live signals. Local or customized data can be manually entered into the system as well.
GuideBuilder sends the DVB-SI data to the multiplexer, creating a digital television transport
stream compliant with DVB digital television standards.
Versatile GuideBuilder is the industry leader in DTV metadata generation and management. GuideBuilder is available to support the DVB infrastructures (DVB-T, DVB-C, and DVB-S and other
emerging DVB standards) to cover the entire distribution/transmission chain while ensuring compliance with DVB standards.
