Raydel,

    You are correct on both points. QPSK (the only allowed constellation in DVB-S) is 2 bits per symbol.

Hi Ron

That formula it's very useful! Thanks. I have a silly question (sorry for it). If I understand correctly 8000000 is the symbol rate and 12901961 is the TS rate? Correct?

The multiply by 2 is because Tx signal is QPSK? If that's so then it will be 1 for BPSK, 3 for 8PSK and so on.... Am I right?

Thanks!

Raydel

    First, you have to match the TS rate to the symbol rate. The
    equation is:

    Symbol rate * 2 * 188/204 * code rate

    For the example flow graph:

    8000000 * 2 * 188/204 * 7/8 = 12.901961 Mbps

    Second, you need to constrain the video bitrate to fit into the
    selected TS bitrate. With ffmpeg, something like this:

    ffmpeg -i test.mp4 -c:v libx264 -b:v 10M -minrate 11M -maxrate 11M
    -bufsize 8M -c:a copy -muxrate  12901961 test.ts

    For SD video, a smaller bufsize like 2M should be used.

    Hi All
    did some transmission test in DVB-S tonight
    TX : ffmpeg + gnuradio + pluto SDR
    RX : RTLSDR + sdrangel
    it works but there are some gaps in the received signal because
    the TS stream bitrate is slightly less to the maximum usable bitrate

    is it possible to add some bit stuffing at DVB-S modulator side
    to make to output power constant ?
