To configure audio settings:
1.
In the Source field, select an audio source from the drop-down list.
2.
Click the Audio Format.
3.
Click the Audio Type. The drop-down list box provides two choices:
 Main – The same as Low Complexity, but adds backward prediction.
 Low Complexity – The simplest and most widely used and supports AAC audio format.
Note: Depending on the player on which the resulting stream will be heard, either choice will
use a specific set of tools to encode the audio stream. Make your choice based on the
requirement of the playback software or device. The most widely supported format is the
Low Complexity profile.
4.
The default Audio Encoder is AAC (Advanced Audio Coding) – a standardized, lossy
compression and encoding scheme for digital audio. AAC achieves better audio quality than
MP3. AAC and MP3 are MPEG standards.
5.
Click the Bitrate.
6.
Drag the sliders to adjust the Left Volume and Right Volume.

(Optional) Select Mute Audio to silence audio.
