Audio Only source via DM


 

Trying to get audio source to a location that has a surround receiver fed by DM.? Customer wants to listen to an audio source while sometimes watch video source.? Wonder if I were to add a couple of DMC-DVI (Just for audio into the DM) and program the break away audio, if this would work.


 

Yes, it should work. You have to enable "free run" on the DVI card.


 

I do this at home and the only gotcha is that if you have No Source Selected in the video portion and you have your DVI source selected as audio, you will not hear any audio. You have to have a source selected in the video portion to hear audio.

What I do is make sure video goes to the "audio" source when no video is selected.
In other words, if the first source selected is one of your audio sources, it will tell the dm to show the dvi card as the video.


 

Matt,
On the output settings of the endpoint,? there is a selection to play audio without video, but this requires you load a graphics file (we use our company logo). We haven't had any "select video first" issues since we started doing that.


 

Hey CO Cowboy,

I dont see that option on any of my outputs.
Is that only available on a specific RMC?

I am only looking in DM Tools.


 

Also curious about this, as we have 2 dm frames connecting to each other in a lecture hall enviornment (1 at rack, and 1 at teacher station)..

The mic is fed via a bnc or dvi card, and runs on the same dm line as the camera feed to go to the teacher station to feed for capture, zoom, teams, etc.?? When switching cameras(there's 2 of them) on the rack dm we loose audio for a few seconds as video in 5&6 switch but audio in 7 always remains the same on output 3.

most systems are set up with BNC cards for the audio.? will this stop happening if we switch to DVI?
