Figure 4. Input the media settings menu section. 

“HDMI Signal” - shows if HDMI video signal source is connected to the device or not. 

“Video resolution” – connected video signal source parameters such as video resolution and frame rate. 

5.2.2 Output media settings 

 

Figure 5. Output media settings menu section. 

“Video resolution” – video IP stream output resolution. You can select from 1080P, 720P, 576P available 

resolutions. You can also use the “Same as input” option if you want to leave output resolution equal to the video 

input source resolution. 

“Video bitrate” – higher video bitrates give you higher video quality. However, higher network bandwidth is 

required as well. If the device is located far from your physical location and network bandwidth is limited, you may 

use a lower video bitrate value such as 1000 kbps. If you are using the device on your local network and network 

bandwidth is not limited, then you can use a higher video bitrate value such as 10000 kbps. 

“Audio bitrate” – video stream audio bitrate. Select audio bitrate preset from the dropdown list. The higher the 

audio bitrate, the better sound quality will be. 

Click “Update” to apply the changes. 

5.3 Playlist 

The device supports the M3U playlist format for third-party video players. You can import the playlist file to 

your favorite video player to watch a video stream. 

5.3.1 Playlist parameters 

 

Figure 6. Playlist parameters. 

“Playlist name” – playlist name that will be inserted into the playlist file. 

“URL key” – secret password for playlist file security. Other users who don’t know the correct URL key will not 

be able to use the playlist file and watch the video. After filling the URL key with a secret key phrase you must 

download the playlist file again and import the downloaded file to the video player that you are using. Leave this 

field blank if the playlist security feature is not required. 

“Channel title” – one default playlist entry will be available in the downloaded playlist file. The title for this 

default playlist entry can be assigned here. 

Click on the “Update” button to changes take effect.
