The Splits tab contains settings for stations that have a Split setup:


Master IP / Hostname, Port This is the hostname and port of the master machine that is acting as the controller for splits
Tick Don't allow connection requests to prevent any split machines talking to this one. By default, the port is 7002 
Data controller port
Receive incoming commands 
This is the port that PlayoutONE will open so that Data Controller can send commands to PlayoutONE
By default, this port is set to 7003 and the option to Receive incoming commands is ticked, otherwise, Data Controller will be unable to talk to PlayoutONE 
Remote Command Dela
This is the delay between remote commands, we recommend setting this to 1 millisecond to remove any delay when processing them
Max Clients The maximum clients is the maximum amount of connections allowed to the machine, we recommend setting this to 15 
Process incoming Split Commands Enables the machine to process split commands that are sent to it by the master. 
Stretch Command Threshold This is used in conjunction with STRETCH START and STRETCH END Markers and sets the maximum stretch % that is allowed.
