EVS XSnano, Configuration Manual

Page: 122 / 198

Case 2: The 5.1 audio signal is coded in the two-channel Dolby E
standard
• Dolby E over AES/EBU links
◦ Set the configuration of the pair of channels carrying the Dolby E signal to “DY” in
the Multicam Configuration window, Channels tab. This has two effects :
• It disables the sample rate converter on the input channels.
• It forces all transitions to a hard cut.
If the sample rate converter is activated and the audio configuration is a mix between
PCM audio over AES and Dolby E over AES, the sample rate converter will only be
applied to the PCM over AES signal.
• Dolby E Embedded in the SDI/HD SDI stream
◦ Set the configuration of the pair of channels carrying the Dolby E signal to “EY” in
the Multicam Configuration window, Channels tab. This will force the transition to
a hard cut.
◦ The sample rate converter parameter does not apply to embedded audio.
The Dolby E transitions will be correct as long as:
• the configuration is correct
• the AES stream containing Dolby E is correctly synchronized with the video
Dolby E transitions will not be correct (2 frames of mute at the transitions) if the audio type
is set to E instead of EY or D instead of DY.
Audio effects (scrub, slow motion) are not possible in Dolby E. If they are used anyway,
the audio will be muted.
3.4.4. Timecode and Data Insertion
Timecode Settings
User Interface
The Timecode settings allow specifying which type of timecode the users want to use as
the reference to work on a given recorder of an EVS server.
The selection of a timecode type, using the timecode settings, rely on the management of
two timecode jump tables.
These fields are available in the following interfaces:
• in the Multicam Configuration window, Channels tab, in the advanced display mode:
◦ on page 6, 7 or 8 on the server-based application
◦ on the web-based interface
• partly in the Technical menu of the Remote Control Panel (T2.X)
