Standalone VGA Grid User Guide What is a source?
Audio sources
Standalone VGA Grid's Admin panel also automatically discovers all audio sources displays them in the same
section, with the exception of RTSP audio sources. When an RTSP input stream is connected to your
Standalone VGA Grid, a corresponding audio source is automatically added to the list of audio sources for
your channels, even if there is no audio in the RTSP stream (see Add an audio source (custom channel) for
more information).
Audio input devices such as a microphone and portable music players can send audio signals to the
Standalone VGA Gridusing the audio input ports at the back of the system. Audio is also supported
viaHDMIand SDI.
DVI2PCIe cards do not support audio over HDMI. Standalone VGA Grid systems with DVI2PCIe
cards will not be able to capture audio through HDMI sources.
