Introduction

Video Configuration

On the Video/Audio Configuration pages you define the relationship between physical audio/video connectors and audio/video sources and the relationship between audio/video sources and the program. In most cases this is very simple because the hardware allows only one set of relationships. For example, in this release, there is one video source which is, at any point in time, either the Component or S-Video connector, one audio source which can be either one of the audio jacks or both, and one program consisting of the audio source and/or the video source.

Going forward, the software will query the hardware and offer appropriate programs. Note that in some cases, the same video source may be associated with different programs. For example, you may have a single video source associated with multiple audio sources in a multi-language environment. Templates can be used to control a single video or a single audio rate. Templates are part of the rate configuration for each audio or video source. The Load Template button launches a pop-up window showing the available templates with preconfigured values.

As noted above, in some cases there is not a one to one mapping between physical video connectors and video sources. In this release, for example, you can use either the S-Video or the Component connector as the source for the single program available. You can switch between the connectors but the viewer will see the video stream adjusting in the program they are viewing.

Audio Configuration

As noted, this release supports only a single mono or stereo audio source. If two physical connectors are defined as being utilized for stereo, there will be one configuration for the stereo pair. That is, the two physical connectors will represent a single audio program source. The options shown in the dropdown box labeled How is audio connected? define how the audio connectors can be used. There is an Automatic Volume Control field that is enabled by default. The first three options load preset values that cannot be changed unless you select

User Defined.

Program Configuration

The Program Configuration page has an area where all common parameters associated with the program are defined. The most critical of these parameters is the announcement data (on the Transmitters page) and the program name (on the Programs page). In order for the Portal server to know that the various announcements being generated are associated with the same program, the program name for all announcements for different delivery mechanisms and bit rates for the given program must be the same.

Transmitters

There are up to 25 destinations available per program. Each is selectable as unicast or multicast. The configuration parameters are divided into a common section (on the Programs page) and another section (on the Transmitters page) which configures each individual destination. The Announce IP Address for Transmitters and port provides the ability to configure a single announce IP address and port for all multicast/unicast destinations. The announcement for all configured destinations will be sent to this IP address and port.

The Use Global Announce IP and Port option sends the announcement to the IP address and port specified on the Common parameters page. Users are allowed to name the destinations.
