5.9.4.3 Status:
Text boxes report current status for Encoder, Video Frame Sync, Reference Frame Rate and Metadata bitstream.
Encoder
This parameter indicates the operational status of the encoder.
Video Frame Sync
This parameter indicates the status of the video reference signal provided to the encoder.
Reference Frame Rate
This parameter indicates the frame rate of the video reference signal provided to the encoder. It will be set to
Not
Indicated
if the frame rate is not recognized.
Metadata Bitstream
This box indicates the status of the selected Metadata bitstream. The Metadata will be reported as invalid if it
contains missing and/or invalid parameters or erroneous segment checksums
5.9.5 MOD-LA-ALC-X-YYY (ALC) module
Minimizing loudness differences between
segments in a playout channel is an
important issue in a world where multiple
programs originating in different formats
from different sources must be integrated
seamlessly. The MOD-LA-ALC Automatic
Loudness Control (ALC) module is the
Miranda/Linear Acoustic solution to this
need. It uses Linear Acoustic’s AeroMAX
tm
multiband
loudness control algorithm.
•
Identified as MOD-LA-ALC-X-YYY on the module tab where X can be 2, 6 or 8 input channels and –YYY is the
optional –DUP UpMAX
tm
module. The table shows the available MOD-LA-ALC models.

Depending on the model, different channel configurations are possible as listed in the table above. The 6-channel
ALC supports only a single program (either 5.1 or 2.0, but 4, 3 and 1 can be used), but the 8-channel ALC supports 2
independent programs. The first program (PGM 1) can only be configured as a single program 5.1 ALC or a 2.0 ALC.
It is not possible to configure it as a 3x2, a 6x1 or any other channel combination with more than one program. If you
are using only 3 channels (left, right and center), you can use the 5.1 configuration and leave the other 3 channels
assigned to silence channels. You can even use the 5.1 ALC for a single mono channel as long as the other channels
