Ø
Delay
This value adjusts the amount of delay applied, in samples, before audio is played out. In other words, it defines
the size of the receiving buffer. It should be large enough to deal with delays in the network such as sending
latency and jitter. The
Delay
should should always be larger than the
general rule, set the
Delay
to 2 x the sender's
Frame Size
. If you experience drop-outs during playback, then
increase the
Delay
time.
Ø
Syntonized Mode
By default this option is disabled, which means that the receiver is running in synchronized mode. Tick the option
to enable syntonized mode, which means that the stream will be free running.
Syntonized mode should be enabled if the clock signal is missing from the SDP information, or if you have a
different clock source selected at the sender and receiver.
Syntonized mode should always be enabled for connections between Lawo audio and V__line devices.
Syntonized mode should be disabled for AES67 or SMPTE 2110-30 compliance.
Any receiving devices which do not support syntonised streaming must connect to the same 981/61
RAVENNA IO module that is transmitting the PTP signal.
Ø
Request unicast
In the current release, this option should be left disabled as RAVENNA streaming supports multicast addressing
only, and not unicast.
Media Settings
Ø
Medium
This field defines the RAVENNA media which will be used to receive the stream. On some devices, only one
media is available and, therefore, there is nothing to select. If your device supports more than one media, then
choose an option from the drop-down menu. For example, for a 981/61 IO module, you can choose either
RAVENNA Audio-strm0
(ra0 + ra1) or
RAVENNA Audio-strm1
(ra2 + ra3).
Ø
Consecutive tracks
Tick this check box to assign consecutive
Play tracks
.
Ø
Play tracks
Use this drop-down menu to assign the receiving channels for the audio stream.
On an A__line device, the receiving channels correspond to the RAVENNA media inputs in the internal
. So, by assigning the Play tracks, and then assigning the RAVENNA media inputs to local TDM (or MADI)
outputs via the matrix, you can play out the audio contained in the RX stream. For convenience, the names
displayed in the drop-down menu show the assigned destinations (e.g. Line Out 1, etc). 64 channels are
available.
Batch Create
You can use this function to quickly create a series of similarly-configured RX streams. See
