This document provides information on the DRP 393 DVB MPEG-4 Receiver/Decoder. It can receive digital TV program streams encoded in MPEG-2 or MPEG-4 via various inputs like ASI, L-Band, DVB-T/T2, DVB-C, or IP. It decodes the streams and outputs a transport stream and video/audio signals. It supports decrypting encrypted channels via two Common Interfaces for Conditional Access Modules. Controls and monitoring are available via the front panel display, web server, and test ports.
