Embedded Audio

• 16-channel embedded audio processing
• PCM audio processing includes channel level gain and delay compensation, as well as channel level routing with L/R swap and phase invert feature
• Non-PCM processing features pair level routing and delay compensation. Dolby E data is passed with a delay to match the video and with co-timed audio frame drop or repeat

Embedded audio: Enable/Blank

Embedded Audio Routing

• Processed pair 1-8: Disembed 1-8
• Output Channels 1-16: Processed pair 1-8, Tone, Silence

Processed Audio Control

• Invert Phase: Channels 1-16
• Pair 1 to 8 Gain L/R: +18 dB to -18 dB in 0.1 dB steps
• Pair 1-8 Manual Delay: -40 to +200 ms in 1 ms steps
• Global Manual Delay: -40 to +200 ms in 1 ms steps
