7.3 Recommended Manual Video Encoder Settings
Note: The preferred method to set range and video quality settings would be to use the sliders explained in
Section 4.3
. This section may be used as a guideline for manual settings only.
The SOLO7 Transmitter can offer transmission bitrates from 150kbps
-1
to almost 30Mbps
-1
. The DTC product
uniquely offers this wide data rate range in the marketplace. When a user chooses a lower bitrate link they
will achieve much greater range than standard achieved by a DVB-T link. Range increases of 2 to 5 times
over DVB-T are possible.
DTC encoding products provide the user with a wide range of settings so that a user can trade-off increased
image resolution vs frame rate vs latency for any chosen COFDM link mode.
DTC Video Encoders offer both Standard Delay and Low Delay settings. Standard Delay provides between
0.5 to 1 second delay for bitrates above 1Mbps and slightly longer delays as the bitrate is reduced. Low
Delay typically reduces the end-to-end delay by a factor of 4 to 8. When operating with COFDM links below
600kbps of bitrate it is recommended to only use Standard Delay mode.
