# xNode2 sources not displayed properly in iProbe

## Scope

This document covers an issue that may cause xNode2 sources to display incorrectly in iProbe. This is specific to xNode2 and iProbe. No other topics are covered here.

## Description

Sources from an xNode2 may display incorrectly in iProbe and look like this.

> [!WARNING]
> Note that the first source (11401 AV Mix) is correct, but the others are not

This happens if the Payload Type (pt=)is something OTHER than 96. Here you can see pt=97

Looking at it in an xNode2, we can see that it is, in fact, 97 for senders 2 through 8

## Changing the Payload Type

Prior to xNode2, the Payload Type in xNode was not (easily) settable. But with more interoperable AoIP standards (Like AES67 and SMPTE2110-30), more configurability is needed for compatibility. The Payload type of 97 is “confusing” to iProbe, as it expects a Payload Type of 96.

### To change the Payload Type

1. In the sources list, click the AES67 option in the AoIP Type column ![](https://cdn.document360.io/57e3cd80-d493-453c-9672-ad1b043dadc3/Images/Documentation/image-NZHWBL7D.png?sv=2026-02-06&spr=https&st=2026-11-01T19%3A28%3A45Z&se=2026-11-01T20%3A28%3A45Z&sr=c&sp=r&sig=U1rvE5cte%2F1zuAqi9nbubuXyN%2B8tf2jbCGPVBJvkXSY%3D)

> [!WARNING]
> Note that when you do this, other columns like Bps, Payload Type, Address, Port, and pTime are editable.

1. From the Payload Type dropdown list, pick 96 ![](https://cdn.document360.io/57e3cd80-d493-453c-9672-ad1b043dadc3/Images/Documentation/image-VC5IYTTH.png?sv=2026-02-06&spr=https&st=2026-11-01T19%3A28%3A45Z&se=2026-11-01T20%3A28%3A45Z&sr=c&sp=r&sig=U1rvE5cte%2F1zuAqi9nbubuXyN%2B8tf2jbCGPVBJvkXSY%3D)
2. Change the AoIP Type back to Livewire. ![](https://cdn.document360.io/57e3cd80-d493-453c-9672-ad1b043dadc3/Images/Documentation/image-2UEAID9R.png?sv=2026-02-06&spr=https&st=2026-11-01T19%3A28%3A45Z&se=2026-11-01T20%3A28%3A45Z&sr=c&sp=r&sig=U1rvE5cte%2F1zuAqi9nbubuXyN%2B8tf2jbCGPVBJvkXSY%3D)

> [!WARNING]
> Note the other fields are no longer editable but the PaylodType is now 96

1. Repeat these steps for other sources on this xNode2
2. Click Save

### Check iProbe

Once you refresh the device in iProbe, you will see that the Sources now display normally.
