# Configure in-band metadata in input stream

To configure in-band metadata input stream, follow these step:

In our example, we consider that you have selected an MPEG-2 TS input.

* From the Input tab, go to the Input streams selection > Metadata ID section then click the Add button. The Metadata selection window displays.

* Select a Type.

* Enter or select the following information depending on the selected type:

Enter a PID.

* If you selected SCTE-35 type, you can apply a Delay.

* If you selected Cuetones type, select the audio source that you previously created.

* Click Ok to save.

The in-band metadata stream is added to the list of metadata.

* The in-band metadata is automatically added to the Encoding tab.

* Click Save and continue or Save and exit to save your changes.
