SCHEDULED PLAYBACK
To overcome these common problems, SyncCore
ä
enabled products take a unique approach. The same clock
references that are used to maintain phase-lock between on-board and off-board devices are also used to maintain
a very precise master clock. In other words, all devices keep track of the current hour, minute, second, and
millisecond with a precision as tight as a few nanoseconds.
With this approach, playback times are scheduled based upon this shared master clock. This greatly reduces the
impact of network latency because the time that the command arrives is irrelevant as long as it arrives before the
scheduled playback time.
