Known Issues and/or Limitations
| MPEG-TS Muxing Overhead |
Because of vbv-buffer compatibility the muxer overhead is set to 80%. This result of this is an overall increased bitrate of 80%, in regards to the configured video bitrate within LTN-Schedule transcoding settings. For example: 10MBit configured within the Schedule UI will result in 18MBit MPEG-TS muxed stream output on the actual MPEG-TS Output (SRT). RTMP and HLS Targets are not affected by that. LTN continues improving this component to reduce the overhead in upcoming updates.
Update: From release v9.3.04 on, upon request, we can now provide different encoding settings that will reduce the muxer overhead to 20% while also flattening the video-bitrate. With the upcoming v9.4.01 release we are planning to make this the new default settings. |
| Deletion of rundown elements | Deleting more than 2000 assets in the rundown at once does not work. |
| Starting Playback during an ad-break issue |
Starting Playback during an ad-break can cause the current video element to skip to the next one too early when the backup video is overall shorter than the ad-break itself. |
| Moving assets into folders in asset-library |
When the designated folder is expanded, one can not drop items into this folder. |
