For SDI input you must create the streamobjects to match your input content.1. Begin by displaying SAG in your browser. (See Displaying SAG for instructions.)The platform displays a SAG page similar to Figure 2–1.2. In the Configuration page > Logical Inputs panel, right-click Baseband SDI–1 and choose AddNew. Add a Baseband Video, and a Baseband Embedded Audio.Figure 3–2: Adding streams to Logical InputsWhen you add the audio you indicate the group and pair that carry the audio. If you plan to havea stereo audio stream (or an audio passthrough stream), L/R will be taken into account. Thedevice will discard C/LFE and Ls/Rs.For a real service, you would add all streams that correspond to the input content. You can thenchoose to include them in the output when you create the output transport stream.Any stream that you want to include in the output must be added here in the Logical Inputs first.For example, if you want to output another video or audio from the same source input, you createthem here under Baseband SDI–1.
