Configuring Audio Metadata and Output

The audio configuration for an Output Server 2 channel is performed in two places. Dolby
metadata is configured from the Output Server 2 Configuration panel, while audio output
mapping is performed from the Engineering layout in iTX Desktop.

Configuring Dolby Metadata

Dolby metadata can be configured for Dolby E and Dolby D output groups using the Dolby
Metadata
tab on the Output Server 2 Configuration panel. During configuration, you can
set specific values for each parameter and set a resolution rule.

Setting the Rule field to Manual Value applies the set value as the constant default.

Setting the Rule field to Decoders, then manual value applies a conditional setting such
that if the Dolby decoder provides a setting for that metadata parameter, then the
decoder’s setting takes precedent over the set value.

To configure metadata for Dolby E and/or Dolby D output groups:

1 Open the Configuration panel and click the Dolby Metadata tab, as described in

Accessing the Output Server 2 User Interface
