4.5.3 Creating target device configurations
Using different device targets for a presentation requires configurations for each type of
device.
About this task
A broadcast presentation may have to address different types of target devices for
reception. Those devices can include TVs or set-top boxes with stereo, 5.1, or Dolby Atmos
capability. For each presentation, you can create target device configurations with dynamic
