16 August 2021
Fixed
- Issue with AoIP streams in the configuration file when upgrading to version 4.2.
4.2.2255
27 July 2021
New
- Crosspoint muting - Click on a mix point on the audio routing grid and assign it to a "GPI Mute Group", the mute can then be controlled via the "GPIO Settings" webpage by adding the corresponding event as an output.
- Inputs and outputs on the "GPIO Settings" page can now be added and removed in groups rather than individually (except when adding/removing "Virtual Port" inputs, or removing "Physical Port" inputs).
- Increased the number of "Virtual Ports" available.
Fixed
- Switching between dual and single stream SDPs via BESS.
- Issues when initialising the DSP client for DSP functions.
4.1.2141
2 February 2021
New
- New webpage UI.
- BESS support.
- Metering available on the audio routing grid and within I/O configuration windows.
- Inputs and outputs can now be filtered by type on the audio routing grid.
- Extra icons on the audio routing grid can now be shown/hidden.
- RTSP and SAP messages can now be disabled by setting the 'disable_stream_discovery' option in the configuration file to true.
Fixed
- User button function on devices without a meter display cannot be setup.
- Valid AoIP output stream destination address rejected.
- Issues when connecting virtual GPIO.
- Invalid Ember+ parameters and enumerations.
- Phase metering not appearing.
- Invalid value for gain shown in the configure connection window when switching between line and mic mode on the PM8/T/D.
- Special characters in file playback filenames cause issues.
- Issue with default file playback names.
- Issues with dual SDPs.
3.2.2061
27 March 2020
Fixed
- Fixed issue where process doesn't release network interface.
- Occassionally DAC doesn't initialise.
- Errors in MIB file.
- Issue when AoIP input stream multicast address changes.
- AoIP output stream settings aren't applied to new channels.
- IP address and netmask information not always updated correctly.
- DHCP times out.
3.0.2025
6 January 2020
New
-
Audio Routing
- Audio files can now be uploaded and used as an input to the audio routing grid. Upto 1 GB worth of audio can be uploaded to the unit, these audio files must be of .wav type and have a sample rate of 48 kHz.
- DSP functions can now be added to the output of the audio routing grid. This allows a DSP function to be performed on the audio routed to it. Currently only the DTMF detect function is available, this function allows detection of a DTMF tone which can then be used as a trigger on the GPIO routing grid.
- The mode of the tone generator input can now be selected, the mode can be either sine, saw, or DTMF. When DTMF is selected the DTMF digit generated can also be selected.
- New event type DSP function can be selected as an input to the audio routing grid, this allows a DSP function added to the audio routing grid to be used as a trigger for a general-purpose output.
GPIO Routing
Fixed
-
GPIO Routing
- Adding a large number of GPO to the GPIO routing grid causes device to crash.
Changed
-
System
- System logs will now always download as a .tar type file.
2.5.1973
11 October 2019
New
- SMPTE ST 2110 support.
- Unicast addresses can now be used in an AoIP output stream's destination address field.
- Support for listing of redundant streams in SDPs.
- Added SMPTE and AES-SMPTE PTP profiles.
- Added the option to use unicast delay messages instead of multicast.
AoIP Routing
PTP Profiles
Fixed
- AoIP output stream allows invalid destination address.
Changed
-
Audio Routing
- Custom value can now be used for the buffer delay when adding an AoIP input stream.
2.2.1867
30 April 2019
New
-
GPIO Routing
- GPIO input events to indicate when digital lock has been lost on the physical audio inputs on the AVN-PD8.
- GPIO output events to allow an AoIP output stream to be stopped completely rather than just muted.
- Support for connecting multiple inputs and outputs in the GPIO routing grid.
- Warning indication shown on virtual GPI when the virtual GPO source driving it is no longer available.
- Multicast TTL option now available on AoIP output streams.
- The SDP information for an AoIP output stream is now available via the AoIP stream's configuration window.
AoIP Routing
Fixed
- Event input connections not disconnected when event input removed.
- Output stream multicast IP address not updated in audio routing grid when changed via Ember+
Changed
-
Audio Routing
- Adjusted the minimum and maximum values used for the pre-amp gain setting to accurately represent the gain being applied.
- Enabled Ember+ on both AoIP and Ethernet ports.
Ember+
2.1.1650
23 January 2019
New
-
GPIO Routing
- Added an invert option to GPIO routings.
- Multicast TTL option now available on AoIP output streams.
- The SDP information for an AoIP output stream is now available via the AoIP stream's configuration window.
- A password can now be added to the devices web server within the 'Network Settings' web page, this prevents unauthorised changes to the configuration.
- The port number of the device can now be changed within the 'Network Settings' web page, this port number then needs to be provided when accessing the web server. For example if the port number is changed to 1024 the web server is then accessed using http://Device_IP_Address:1024.
- Added web page auto loading when rebooting the unit.
