Only available with **SMPTE ST 2110** input type.

| Parameter         | Description                                                                                                                                                                                                          |

| Data Type         | Data Type carried on the VANC input. This determines what data streams will be generated. Video Metadata will be carried on the Video PID or a separate PID. Possible values: Video Metadata , Subtitles or STCE-104 |
| SDP File Location | Location of SDP file describing the input stream. Either a URL or a file location.                                                                                                                                   |
| Stream Index      | Index of stream within the SDP file. 1 is the first stream.                                                                                                                                                          |
| DPI PID index     | Only available with STCE-104 data type. Specifies the index to the DPI PID which will carry the resulting splice\_info\_sections.                                                                                    |
| Delay             | Only available with STCE-104 data type. If metadata stream is SCTE35, a delay adjusts the trigger time value. Possible values: From 30000 to 60.000 milliseconds.                                                    |
| Max bitrate       | Highest bitrate that can be used to capture Teletext subtitles                                                                                                                                                       |
