Caption Uplink to Streaming Media Servers (Streaming Module)
The Streaming feature posts real-time caption data to external web services for delivering high-quality web-based
closed captioning.
To determine if Streaming is installed on your unit, access your encoder’s web interface, look for an entry that
says Streaming on the left side menu and select it. If you are prompted for a license key, the feature is not
installed and can be purchased by contacting the EEG sales team.
While the HTTP Streaming Uplink module is active, all closed captions through the encoder will be passed to the
streaming server. These captions may be locally inserted to the video through iCap, telnet, or dial-up mechanisms
(encoders only), or they may be present on the input video, and originally coded using either real-time/roll-up or
offline/pop-on workflows.
Before using the Streaming feature, you will need a stream URL for posting captioning data (example:
http://in.videolinq.net/caption), a stream ID or username, and a password.
