Audio Encoder Settings
The following tables list the Audio Encoder controls and settings:
Input Parameters
| Audio Setting | Default | Description/Values |
|---|---|---|
| Input | SDI1 (1-2) | Select the Audio Input for the encoder.
|
Basic Parameters
| Audio Setting | Default | Description/Values |
|---|---|---|
| Channel Mode | Stereo | Select the number and type of audio channels to encode:
|
| Bitrate | 128 kbps | Select the Audio Bitrate for the encoder: Note As of v1.1.1, the Makito X1 allows lower audio encoding bitrates (intended for very limited bandwidth streaming situations), as well as higher quality audio encoding at higher bitrates. The allowed bitrate ranges for 16 kHz sample rate are different than what was previously available for 48 kHz. 48 KHz sample rate:
|
16 KHz sample rate (analog only):
| ||
| Sample Rate (kHz) | 48 kHz | The number of audio samples per second taken from the incoming signal.
|
| AAC-LC Algorithm | MPEG-2 ADTS | The audio compression algorithm:
|
| 0 dBFS Audio Level (dBu) | 0 dBu | (Analog Input only) Adjusts the maximum analog Audio Input signal level (0 dBfs) from -6 to 0 dBU. Note This is useful in applications such as broadcast and streaming to allow higher audio headroom. |
| Language | n/a | To specify the language of the input, start typing letters and select the language from the list. |
Statistics | n/a | Click Statistics to view statistics for the encoder. See Audio Encoder Statistics. |
Mute | n/a | Click Mute to encode silence instead of the selected audio input. For example, this may be used when you do not wish to encode the audio but the decoder being used does not support decoding of video only streams. |
Stop Start | n/a | Click Stop to stop an active encoder. Click Start to start or restart a stopped encoder. |
