Jitter (ms)
Network jitter
Latency (ms)
Stream Latency configured on the encoder side.
If the latency set is less than 3 times the Round Trip Time (RTT)
value, then Latency value turns red to indicate non-sufficient error
recovery buffer size (refer to the note below)
Total Packets
Total number of packets already transmitted
Packet Rate
Current number of packets per second transmitted
Packet Loss (p/s)
The current percentage of dropped packets between the encoder and
decoder (the packet loss is introduced by the network link). Zixi
allows to recover up to 30% packet loss.
Dropped Packets
Total number of packets dropped between the encoder and the
decoder due to the network link. The dropped packets are recovered
by Zixi technology (see below parameters).
Recovered Packets
The total number of dropped packets that have been recovered on
the decoder side since the beginning of the streaming
Non-recoverable Packets Total number of non-recovered packets since the beginning of the
streaming.
If the packet loss is lower than 30%, this number should remain to
zero, meaning no interruption or decoding artifacts were experienced
by the viewer.
Table 4-1: The Zixi Channel Statistics
NOTE:
For getting sufficient error-recovery, it is recommended to set the Zixi Latency (in Channel / Error Correction) at least 3
times larger than the RTT (i.e Latency >= 3* RTT).
