    Z3 demo application code and scripts The Z3 application code that comes with the Z3-DM8107-SDI-RPS is run from the run.sh script in dvr- rdk/dvr_rdk/bin/ti810x . This code calls the z3_dvr_rdk_demo_mcfw_api.out binary, which initializes and runs the encoder. This binary is built from the dvr-rdk directory. The code for the binary resides in z3apps/rdk/rdk_demo.

  • Page 30: Adjusting The Udp Ts Rate

    DOC-USR-0030-13 7.10 Adjusting the UDP TS Rate The Z3-DM8107-SDI-RPS includes a parameter to adjust the TS rate independent of the video bitrate. This can be found just below “PMT PID” when “UDP” is selected as the output format. Normally, this value is set to 25% to 33% above the sum of the video and audio bitrate. For example, the default value out of the factory is a value of 10Mbps, corresponding to 8Mbps for the video.

  • Page 31: Figure 19 Ts Rate And Lower Bitrate Reflected In Vlc

    (8) The value of TS Rate must be higher than (video bitrate + audio bitrate) * 1.25. If an attempt is made to input a value less than this, the error message “TS rate too small to carry elementary streams” will appear. ___________________________________________________________________________________________ Z3 Technology, LLC ♦ 100 N 8 ST, STE 250 ♦ Lincoln, NE 68508-1369 USA ♦ +1.402.323.0702...
