The Octopus Multiplexer is a professional Multi-Program Transport Stream (MPTS) software multiplexer. Taking TS streams from video encoders as inputs, the Octopus Multiplexer combines them into MPTS at the output. Input streams can be delivered by either IP or DVB-ASI interfaces. An MPTS stream can be supplied as an input as well, the multiplexer does not limit inputs to be an SPTS only.
