   - **To regenerate a descriptor:** You can regenerate descriptors from an incoming TS by enabling the Regenerate Descriptor option with the incoming TS and Program number.
   - **For Service Passthrough:** Set to **On** in order to re-multiplex an entire incoming service. **This avoids the need to explicitly define the components and descriptors** included in the service.
