STREAMING SERVER FUNCTION
ACCESS has the ability to act as a streaming server, delivering AAC and HE-AAC to compatible PC based media
players. Currently tested media players include WinAmp, VLC, iTunes, Windows Media 12 and Windows Media
Player with Orban/CT HE-AAC plug-in.
By default, streaming server functionality is turned off. To enable it, go to the
System Settings
tab of the user
interface and choose the
HTTP Settings
option. Under the first option, set
Accept Incoming Connections
to
Enabled
.
Next you will need to choose an encoder for use by the streaming server. Only the encoder choices that are
compatible with the players listed are shown in this menu. Choices span between a mono audio feed at 18 kb/s, up
to a stereo feed at 128 kb/s.
Keep in mind multiple streams will require this bandwidth along with around 25% overhead for each stream.
The
Genre
,
Info URL
and
Public
options may be set for anything, or left alone. These options, if applied, will be
embedded into the stream.
DECODING A HTTP STREAM
To decode a stream, open one of the supported players and find the option to open a URL based stream. In
Winamp and VLC, input the address of the ACCESS in the following format (the address is merely made up for this
example and are used for demonstration only):
http://192.168.0.75:8000
(insert the real IP address, but always use port
8000
)
In Windows media, input the address like this:
http://192.168.1.75:8000/stream.asx
(using the actual IP address)
SIMUlTANEOUSly CONNECTING ACCESS AND STREAMING
ACCESS can stream while connected to another ACCESS in normal mode. If the BRIC connection is using an AAC
algorithm supported by players, when a stream is requested it will be delivered using the same encoder as the BRIC
connection, regardless of the HTTP settings. If the ACCESS encoder is Linear or FLAC, the stream request will be
rejected.
