## 10.6. Managing System Settings

To manage system-wide settings --i.e. those settings that apply to all Rivendell hosts -- in RDAdmin, touch the `System Settings` button to open the System-Wide Settings dialog.

The System-Wide Settings Dialog

The `System Sample Rate:` dropdown sets the global sample rate to be used for Rivendell's audio store. This control should be set before ingesting any audio into a new Rivendell system and not altered thereafter.

### Warning

Changing this setting on a system with existing audio in the audio store may result in incorrect play-out of that audio!

The `Allow Duplicate Cart Titles` box, if not ticked, will force all carts to have a unique title. If unticked, then ticking the `Auto-Correct Duplicate Cart Titles` box will cause duplicate cart titles to be automatically made unique when imported. The unique name is constructed by appending "`[n]`", (where `n` is an integer) to the end of the title string.

The `ISCI Cross Reference Path:` field takes the full path to the ISCI cross reference file used by the rdrepld(8) daemon (used only in conjunction with X-Digital copysplit replication).

The `Maximum Reemote Post Length:` field sets the maximum length POST submission that will be processed by the RDXport service. It should seldom be necessary to change this value.

The `Temporary Cart Group:` dropdown sets the Rivendell group to be used for storing temporary carts --e.g. carts used for processing direct file play-outs in rdcartslots(1).

If the `Show User List in RDLogin` box is ticked, rdlogin(1) will require users to enter their user name as well as their password when logging in (instead of providing all possible user names in a dropdown).
