I have been working on my SRT Repeater and today have implemented audio on all four channels.

Now that the quad windows all have audio at the same time you will need to take into account other users and implement measures to stop feedback like waring headphones etc.

Look forward to seeing and hearing you all on the SRT Repeater.

SRT REPEATER
I have made some changes to my SRT Repeater.
The use of a PC with OBS USB video and a sound input capture modules has now been replaced.
The repeater now consists of 4 raspberry pi’s each with SRT RPi Players installed.
4 HDMI outputs are connected to a Quad Multi Viewer giving a single HDMI output.
The audio from 4 raspberry pi’s are connected to a sound mixer producing a single audio output.
The HDMI and Audio are connected to a ZowiBox encoder which has OSD option to produce text or graphic overlays.
Using the ZowiBox now testing a second BATC stream to g8koe.
The main output is streamed to a MediaMTX server on raspberry pi.
You now have audio on all 4 inputs.
With the changes made I can apply power and the repeater boots up in operational mode.

TALKBACK ALLSTAR 47572
The talkback is working well on ALLSTAR 47572 and is a good place to get help.
I keep forgetting to leave gaps between transmissions which is important so others can join the QSO.
Disconnecting from a network before connecting to the ALLSTAR TALKBACK 47572 keeps it as a DATV Node.

Hi,
I have been experiencing my SRT Repeater loosing connection to my BATC stream “g8koe”
For now I have turned this function off.
Hope to reconnect in the future.
Investigating my internet connection.

I am intending to try using my SRT REPEATER as a world wide gateway to joining the Sunday Net.
Talkback for my repeater is on ALLSTAR 47572.
More news I have updated the firmware in my ZowieBOX encoder and that has fixed the dropout to my BATC Stream g8koe.
As you fix one problem there is always another.
Confusion between the encoder and quad box causing random selection of mode or input.
A reboot usually fixes the problem.
Now have a second quad box which is under test.
