Run PrepareToSend internal	1 if multiplexer shall run a PrepareToSend-Thread
Service Interval Adressing	Interval in seconds for sending addressing table to receivers
Service Interval Slotlist	Interval in seconds for sending the slotlist to receivers
Service Interval BC-Settings	Interval in seconds for sending the backchannel settings to receivers
Service Interval Softw.-Update	Interval in seconds for sending the client software to receivers

Multiplexer\\Interfaces\\(NAME)

Encrypt Frames	1 if frames have to be encrypted before transmission
ExtraHeader	Number of bytes which are added to the netto size of a frame during bandwidth calculations. This could be the TCP-Header, etc.
Max. Frame Len	Max. netto frame length
Max. Bandwidth	Max. brutto bandwidth in bits per second
Type	Type of send interface (0=Multicast, 1=TCP)
Multicast IP Addr	Multicast address, the frames are send to
Multicast IP Port	Multicast port, the frames are send to
Multicast TTL	Time to live of a multicast frame. Each Router decrements a frames TTL when it passes. When TTL is 0, the frame is deleted by the router
Registration IP Addr	IP address of adapter which accepts registration connects
Registration IP Port	port to wait for registration connects
SendInterface IP Addr	IP address of the net adapter used for sending
StackSize	Number of frames which are calculated as send buffer. Small values cause a unstable bandwidth. High values cause delays in live streams

transmissions	Last used transmissions
delay	Last used delay between transmissions
compare path	Last used compare path

Player

Audio Buffer Size	Size of audio buffers in bytes. Small values can cause audio jitter. High values can cause delays
Delete After Days	If a content file is older than this value, it will be deleted by the player
FrameRate [Hz]	Flipping rate in Hz. High values cause better rendering quality but also higher CPU usage
Logging Path	Path to write log files to. Leave this value empty to stop the player writing log files
HollyStart	Path to Adjust32.exe. It will be started before rendering, to init. the hollywood plus. Leave this field empty, if no hollywood plus is used
