Abstract

A transport stream encoder is disclosed which comprises a plurality of FIFO buffers coupled to sources of component signals. Each of the FIFO buffers has a data output terminal for producing component signal data. A packetizer has a data input terminal for receiving component signal data, and produces a packet stream. A data bus is coupled in common to the data output terminals of the FIFO buffers and the data input terminal of the packetizer.
