Member mindopera Posted January 26, 2021 Member Report Share Posted January 26, 2021 It's been awhile since I have set up DVS for multiple channels. The last time I set it up the server was a Win 7 server. I am following what I did the last time, but the menu does not show the name of the NIC, it shows services. So I'm confused on how to get WO to have top priority and the Dante NIC to be second. I wrote about how to set up Dante in this post. Has anyone used DVS on a windows 10 machine successfully and if yes, could you explain how you did this? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Quim Posted January 26, 2021 Member Report Share Posted January 26, 2021 Hi, I just set a system with DVS with 30 channels splitted in 2 WO servers. It's working fine using 2 NIC, one for the WO and the other for the DVS. When you setup your NIC properties, if you go to Advanced Options, for the WO NIC you should disable Automatic Metric and set it to 1. For the NIC used by the DVS you can leave it to Automatic. WO will take the Metric 1 as NIC and you can set the DVS to use the other one. Hope helps. Quim 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member mindopera Posted January 26, 2021 Author Member Report Share Posted January 26, 2021 Thank you for your quick reply Quim. That did the trick. A few more questions if you don't mind. When I did this before I to used a USB dongle as the Dante NIC, simply because that was the only way it seemed to work. If I have two NIC's on the motherboard do I need and USB NIC anymore? I was using WAV files using the “Wave Format Extensible” file format. is that still the best format to use on multichannel audio files? Thanks again 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Quim Posted January 27, 2021 Member Report Share Posted January 27, 2021 Hi, I was using a motherboard with 2 NIC Regarding files, I was using single files for each channel and then you can assign to the output you want.

I have been ghosting the ‘Dante Users Forum’ on Facebook for a while. Seems not all motherboard NICs are up to the task. Some are. i.e. ymmv. I have seen NIC settings tips for Dante in that forum as well. That forum may be a good place to seek that knowledge, there seems to be many helpful participants there. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
