I'm working with a Cable TV company at the moment and we want to get a ubuntu box on a remote head end where all our feeds are flying over IP on multicast. What we would like to do with this machine (apart from wireshark the multicast) is to be able to analyze the streams on the fly. I know about DVBSnoop, but I have not been able to listen to the stream on multicast as it flies on the network, the other problem is that we want to hand this down to users who will (lets just say) prefer a GUI. So I wonder if there's anything (commercial or FLOSS) that will give us at least a similar feature set like TSReader.
When it comes to ETR 101 290 monitoring I haven't seen anything under linux, does anyone know of any software? even if it's software that would work under wine we might be able to get away with it
Not remotely FLOSS, but MP2TSAE from Manzanita systems runs on Linux (it says here) and can analyse IP streams in real time (it says here). Never used it myself, but I've used their MP2TSME multiplexer and it's generally a solid product with good support.
