| Title: |
Systems and Methods For Encoding a DMX Data Stream and Decoding an AES Digital Audio Stream |
| Abstract: |
A tunneling system includes an encoding module, which is typically located
in the production studio, and a decoding module, which is typically
located in the entertainment venue. The encoding module is configured to
incorporate DMX codes into an Audio Engineering Society (AES) digital
audio stream to provide additional scenes, props, special effects,
lights, sounds, and music in the entertainment venue. The DMX codes are
typically incorporated into the AES digital audio stream so that they are
synchronized with the performance recorded on the digital video stream.
The encoding module is used to add, embed or record the AES digital audio
stream with DMX codes, e.g., lighting data or queues, etc., which control
the equipment in the entertainment venue. The recording module is used to
make the standard AES/European Broadcasting Union (EBU) audio channels
hold codes such as lighting data to enhance the entertainment experience.
