Audio stream generated from another console
The AoIP module can be configured to receive RTP streaming generated from another Solidyne console with streaming support (e.g.: D612, 2600 series, Unidex series, ADA102 coder/link).The encoding device must have the same firmware (STL). From factory, the console comes in CODER (Studio Encoder) mode. To receive, it must be configured as DECODER.
Reception configuration (Decoder)
- Access the IP module from a web browser (see IP Module Access.
- In the top menu, click Location.
- Change the mode to → Transmitter Decoder.
- Factory default: Studio Encoder, generates unidirectional streaming.
- As Decoder, default values are adopted (only modify IP and ports).
- Go to Configuration → Streaming.
- In Port, enter the port used in the encoder (the transmitting device).
- In URL, leave 0.0.0.0.
- Press Apply to confirm.
Buffer adjustment (RTP delay)
The input buffer (expressed in milliseconds) prevents audio interruptions when bandwidth is insufficient:| Audio Format | Recommended Buffer |
|---|---|
| PCM | 40-80 ms |
| Compressed (e.g. MP3) | >80 ms (depends on codec and decoding) |
Decoded audio connection
- Audio received via Ethernet is sent to balanced inputs through external cable (RJ45 to RJ45, provided).
- Connection: AoIP Output Option → BAL-1 or BAL-2.
- In DX822 with two AoIP modules: derived output to both inputs (BAL-1 and BAL-2) using special “Y” cable (supplied).
Reception using a computer
It’s possible to receive transmission from a DX/AoIP on a computer with RTP-compatible software.Recommended: VLC Player (free – videolan.org/vlc). Format configuration in VLC:
- PCM16 @ 44.1 kHz, or
- MP3 in any of its modes.
- Menu: Media → Open Network Location.
-
In URL field enter:
[protocol]://[source_IP]:[port]
RTP→ protocol.0.0.0.0→ any incoming IP.3030→ used port.
Some VLC versions accept:
RTP://@:3030
