„
Default Data Rate: Sets the default bit rate.
„
Packet Size: Sets the default packet size. You can select 188, 204, and
208.
„
Playout Data Rate: Sets the playout bit rate for the overall schedule.
„
Use automatic playout data rate: Uses the bit rate derived from the first
stream in the schedule list.
„
Manually specify a playout data rate: Uses a clock source and bit rate
that you specify. When you select this option, the Clk Source list box and
the Set button become available. Use the Calk Source list box to select a
clock source for the stream playout. You can select Internal, ExtRef 10M,
ExtRef 27 M, ExtRef IFFT, Ext P Clk, or Ext S Clk. Refer to
Clock Dialog
Box on page 3-7 for detailed information about each clock source. When
you click the Set button, the Set Custom Clock dialog box appears. In this
dialog box, you can set the appropriate bit rate.
„
Seamless Play: Sets whether or not the streams in the schedule list are
continuously played with no discontinuities. Normally, stream output stops at
every file, changing points if each stream has different bit rate. When it is
checked, all the streams are played using the same bit rate set by the Playout
Bitrate options.
NOTE. You cannot play a Non TS or M-TMCC stream(s) using the Seamless Play
mode.
If you play streams that have different packet sizes using the Seamless Play mode,
click the Enabled check box in the Continuous Time Stamping field to deselect the
check box.
If you play streams that have different bit rates using the Seamless Play mode, the
Fixed ES Rate setting in the MTX100A does not work properly.
