Start

Start DVB Inspector by double clicking on the DVBinspector-0.0.10.jar file (prefered), or (alternativly) on the dvb.bat file, starting dvb.bat from a command prompt or by clicking on a shortcut.

When started an empty window will appear.

When started by using the dvb.bat file you may see in the background a dos box with some logging information in it. You can ignore this box, but don't try to close it!

To open a transport stream click the "File" menu, select "open", with the file browser select the file you want to inspect.

Views

DVB Inspector offers four different views of a transport stream; A tree view (for logical analyzes), a bitrate view (to see bitrate alter over time), a bar view (summary of average/minimum and maximum bitrates) and a grid view (to see how different PIDs are distributed over time).

Transport Stream (TS)

The different aspects of this program are demonstrated with the transport stream, digitenne 482000 06-30 19-43-54.ts (64,587,776 bytes). This is a capture of the DVB-T Service of Digitenne, and contains 4 FTA MPEG2 TV services, and some radio stations. Other features like AIT and DSM-CC are demonstrated with ARD 634000 05-08 23-38-10.ts (60,415,680 bytes). For features that are not present in this stream (like DVB subtitling) other examples are used.

Since development of the program is a continuous process, screen shots may not be up to date.
