SAMcorder provides two possibilities for the live analysis of MPEG-2 Transport Streams.

1. SAMbera
   
   SAMbera performs live DVB Measurement that is oriented on MPEG-2 Measurement Guideline TR 101 290. Because dvbSAM is focused on DVB-H, DVB-H specific enhancements in regard to this guideline have additionally been implemented (Time Slice and Jitter analysis). Call SAMbera from SAMcorder directly. For more information see the SAMbera product page.
   
   
2. SAMalyzer
   
   SAMcorder creates a snapshot of the MPEG-2 Transport Stream which is currently received and send it to the SAMalyzer application. SAMalyzer performs an in-depth analysis of this transport stream. It extremely simplifies finding problems and errors within DVB-H broadcast services.
   Call SAMalyzer from SAMcorder directly. For more information see the SAMalyzer product page.

Note: SAMbera and SAMalyzer are not part of SAMcorder. Both tools have to be ordered separately.

SAMcorder provides the central input/output processor within dvbSAM suite.

SAMcorder is able to process DVB-H, DVB-T, DVB-S and DVB-S2 transmissions.

SAMcorder does closely interact with other components of the dvbSAM suite, especially with SAMesg, SAMalyzer, SAMitor and SAMflute.
