Video Resolution
This pull-down menu sets the video
resolution for the outgoing stream. To
make the stream the same resolution
as the input imply select “Follow
Input”. Otherwise select an outgoing
resolution from the list.
NOTE:
Up-Scaling, (creating a stream
larger than the incoming resolution) is
not recommended as it usually results
in severely reduced quality.
Frame Rate
This is
the frame rate of the encoded video. ‘Full’ will result in the same frame rate as the
incoming source. ‘1/2’ will be half the incoming
frame rate.
Video Profile
Talon supports three h.264 encoding profiles; Baseline, Main and High. Profile selection
should be based on the target audience of the encoded video.
Baseline is the lowest level profile and is suitable for streaming to a broad
spectrum of internet connected devices including most older smart phones.
Main is the default setting. It is suitable for most web streaming including HD. It is
also good for most modern smart phones.
High is primarily used for broadcast, or for saving high-quality HD to file. It
supports up to 1080p/60 video.
GOP Size
GOP size refers to the distance between i-frames in a stream or file. Live streaming
generally uses shorter GOP sizes than saving to file. For live streaming a setting of 2 x
(frame rate) is a good starting point. If your encoded stream will be 30 fps, set the GOP
to 60 frames. Some server based transcoders prefer GOP up to 10 seconds.
