Galicaster configuration is specified in two files _conf-dist.ini_ and _conf.ini_. You can download two different models of _conf.ini_ depending on the cards you are using:
* Blackmagic + Epiphan: [conf.ini | http://webfiler.teltek.es/webfiler/galicaster/configs/bm_mobile/conf.ini] |http://webfiler.teltek.es/webfiler/galicaster/configs/bm_mobile/conf.ini]
* Hauppauge + Epiphan: [conf.ini | http://webfiler.teltek.es/webfiler/galicaster/configs/hau_mobile/conf.ini]
Now, it's time to configure the card you've selected and audio. More information about this matter is available [here|1.1 Cookbook].

On the pulse track of your conf.ini, don't leave the value _location_ as \_default. List the inputs and set it. This way you won't need to check it every time you switch on your unit. To do that, run in a shell:
{code:none}
...{code}
Use the _name_ as _location_ on the _conf.ini_ pulse track
{code:none}
[track3]
[track3]

If the NO SOUND dialog is coming in and out constantly, set a higher value on _min_, for example \-40.
