  • Page 29: Adjusting The Udp Ts Rate

    DOC-USR-0057-02 Adjusting the UDP TS Rate The Z3-DM8168-PCI-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 8Mbps, corresponding to 6Mbps for the video.

  • Page 30: Figure 19 Ts Rate And Lower Bitrate Reflected In Vlc

    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...

    4, 8, or 16 lanes. The Z3-DM8168-PCI-RPS board set can also operate as one 1-lane PCIe device. This means that if the mechanical restrictions of inserting a big board into a small slot did not exist, it would also work. Since this is a generic situation, some motherboard vendors have included PCIe slots that have their backs open to allow the insertion of board with more lanes than the connector.
