This article describes how to stream audio from a 3rd party source to the AlphaCom or ICX using an IP Dummy Station:

• Download and install Ffmpeg on PC: https://www.ffmpeg.org/download.html
• From AlphaPro, create an IP Dummy, e.g. 165, and set codec = G722.

• In AlphaWeb - Filters, open an UDP port for incoming audio, e.g. 4322.

Filter settings

• Trigger the action command:

Event Handler

Action commands:

$VAC L165 U8 '10.5.101.133' W1234 W4322

• 165 = the Dummy
• U8 = G.722
• 10.5.101.133 = IP Address of PC
• 4322 = UDP port for audio

From Windows command line, enter:

ffmpeg.exe -re -i "C:\Programmer\ffmpeg\media\06 Paradise by the Dashboard Light.mp3" -ac 1 -acodec g722 -ar 16000 -f rtp rtp://10.5.101.30:4322

• "C:\Programmer\ffmpeg\media\06 Paradise by the Dashboard Light.mp3" = audio source
• 10.5.101.30 = IP Address of the AlphaCom
