Audio 1 Service, Audio 2 Service: The BRD has two independent audio decoders.
These controls allow the selection of the audio service for each of the audio decoders.
The selection is a drop-down menu with the audio PID values. If a language descriptor
can be found for the audio service, the language code is displayed here as well. It is also
possible to disable audio decoding altogether, by selecting the Disabled option. An
example with three audio services (English, Portuguese and French) is shown below.
Decoder Output Configuration
This set of controls configures the video outputs. The appearance of the controls depends on the
selection made on the Digital Output parameter:
The following parameter is always available:
Buffering Latency (ms): the buffering latency through the decoder can be configured
using this parameter. The range is from 0 to 700 milliseconds. It can be used to reduce
overall end-to-end latency depending on stream delivery conditions. Values below
200 milliseconds must be used with care. If this value is set too low for the network
and encoding conditions, the BRD will stop decoding audio. Increase the value in this
case.
Digital Output: Disabled
No additional parameters are displayed in this case. Both the SDI and the HDMI outputs will be
disabled, and video will be present only in the composite output. The composite output will
present either an NTSC or PAL signal depending on the program being decoded.

In the current firmware version, this control is not available and is always checked.
