TSReader 2.8

TSReader by COOL.STF is a Windows-based analyzer for MPEG-2 transport streams used in digital TV and video delivery. It ingests streams from files, IP networks (UDP/RTP), and compatible tuner or interface hardware, then presents a live, hierarchical view of programs and PIDs. Engineers can inspect per-PID bitrates, continuity counters, conditional access details, languages, and descriptors, while the software decodes and validates core PSI/SI and ATSC PSIP tables. Real-time graphs and timing metrics (including PCR-related data) help diagnose multiplexing, signaling, and delivery issues, and optional preview windows use installed codecs to play audio and video elementary streams.

Key capabilities:

• Multi-standard analysis: DVB, ATSC (PSIP), and ISDB transport streams
• Comprehensive table parsing: PAT/PMT, CAT, SDT, NIT, EIT, TDT/TOT, and common ATSC PSIP tables (e.g., VCT, STT, MGT, EIT)
• Input flexibility: files, IP multicast/unicast, and supported tuner/ASI interfaces (edition- and driver-dependent)
• Detailed PID and program views with bitrate, continuity, and descriptor information
• Error detection and monitoring for signaling issues, continuity errors, and rate anomalies
• Capture and export: record full streams or selected PIDs, extract elementary streams and sections, and generate reports/logs
• Available in Lite (free), Standard, and Professional editions with progressively advanced features

TSReader is widely used in broadcast headends, labs, and field operations to verify multiplex configuration, troubleshoot service issues, validate signaling, and document channel lineups.
