Figure 120. Configuring RTMP
If you want to use a hostname instead of an IP address in the URL, you need to set
an appropriate DNS server. If it is in the external network, the set Default route
needs to have access to the Internet. Both can be done in the Setup. For more
information, see
Total Bit Rate
Total Bit Rate and Data Quality
The overall amount of data that is transmitted is controlled by the total allowed
bit rate. This attribute combines the sum of video, audio and remaining bit rates.
Distinction between Total Bit Rate and Video Bit Rate
Total bit rate is the whole bit rate of the transport stream. Total bit rate contains
video, audio and metadata, plus possible padding.
Video bit rate, on the other hand, is the bit rate of the video only. This attribute
has a direct impact on the resulting quality – the lower the allowed video bit rate,
the less the quality of transmitted data.
You can limit the total video bit rate which will define which part of the total bit
rate is dedicated to video data. In some scenarios, it may be necessary to adjust
the total bit rate overhead over the video bit rate.
PCR Stream
Some receivers require PCR to be stand-alone and not to be in the video stream.
This control allows you to select whether the PCR stream should be included in
the video stream or be a stand-alone stream included in the total bit rate, under
its own PID.
EBP Length (Encoder Boundary Point)
Use the EBP setting to define the parameter for Encoder Boundary Point insertion,
which is often used in ABR streaming. This field is typically left empty.
Compliance With
This refers to the transport stream encapsulation standards, and it is relevant
to all stream types. If you are using an Evertz device, select the Evertz standard.
Otherwise, select Standard.
