Signal Delivery and Engineering
Abstract
This chapter outlines how to configure media server outputs to deliver content to screens using SIGNAL RASTERS. It explains how SIGNAL RASTERS define system size, communicate screen data location, and manage shared feeds. The process of collaborating with screen engineers to determine signal paths is detailed. Examples demonstrate remapping content from DELIVERY to SIGNAL RASTERS to enable flexible, independent signal configuration. Techniques for managing complex screen arrangements, truck feeds, and DMX data are also covered.
