Encoding
Encoding configuration is common to the e2635/55 and e3635/55 encoders. The output video
stream can be encoded to either MPEG-2 or H.264 (MPEG-4 Part 10) standard. Scaling
capabilities of the e2635/55 and e3635/55 enable the input signal to be output in a variety of
resolutions and frame rates with stream bit rates ranging between 128kbps and 20Mbps using
either constant or variable bit rate encoding.
You can also choose MPEG-1 Layer 2 (MP2) or AAC (Advanced Audio Coding) audio
encoding.
The Encoding parameters are configured from the
Encoding
page on the web interface as
shown in Figure 18.

– Default Settings
MPEG Standard
The H.264 CODEC can provide good video quality at substantially lower bit rates than
previous standards such as MPEG-2 and MPEG-4 Part 2. Select the appropriate standard for
your display devices. The default is
H.264
.
To configure the MPEG standard:
1. Click
Encoding
.
2. Click the
MPEG Standard
drop down list to select
MPEG-2
or
H.264
.
3. Click the
Apply
button.
Bit Rate Mode
The encoders can be configured to transmit the transport stream with
Constant
bit rate (CBR)
or
Variable
bit rate (VBR). The values range from 128 kbps 20 Mbps. The default setting is
Constant
.
