Caption Uplink to Web Streaming Media Servers
(Streaming Add-On)
The
Streaming
feature posts real-time caption data to external web services for delivering high-quality web-
based closed captioning.
To determine if Streaming is installed on your unit, access your encoder’s web interface, look for an entry
that says
Streaming
on the left side menu and select it
.
If you are prompted for a license key, the feature is
not installed and can be purchased by contacting the EEG sales team.
While the HTTP Streaming Uplink module is active, all closed captions through the encoder will be passed
to the streaming server. These captions may be locally inserted to the video through iCap, telnet, or dial-up
mechanisms (encoders only), or they may be present on the input video, and originally coded using either
real-time/roll-up or offline/pop-on workflows.
Before using the Streaming feature, you will need a stream URL for posting captioning data (example:
http://in.videolinq.net/caption), a stream ID or username, and a password.
