The Input parameters vary depending on the hardware setup and the Source selected.

•

For transcoding, select either TS over UDP (default), RTSP, or Raw Motion JPEG (MJPEG). [Kraken 
transcodes MJPEG into a standard H.264 or HEVC MPEG Transport Stream.] Type in a valid source URL, 
and for TS over UDP input, select the network (Ethernet) interface. 

•

To configure SRT input, select TS over SRT for the source and then complete the additional fields under 
SRT Settings. 

•

To encode HD/SD-SDI video (on Kraken CR, or appliance with SDI capture card installed), select DeckLink 
Micro Recorder 1 and then select the DeckLink (capture card) mode. 

TIP  

For HD/SD-SDI encoding, begin by using “Autodetect” for the DeckLink Mode. If this does not work 

correctly on your system, refer to the Kraken User’s Guide for details on manually selecting the DeckLink 
Mode.

•

To encode Analog Composite video (on Kraken CR, or appliance with Analog Composite capture card 
installed), select Analog Capture 1 and then select the capture card mode (shown following).

NOTE  

Statistics are available from the Inputs Detail View for DeckLink and Analog Composite capture 

cards. Other statistics are available from the Streams Detail View. See
