OUTPUTS
For each input you define, you can create up to three outputs using the touch
screen. You might create different outputs to generate streams with different
streaming bandwidths or output ratios, for example.
Output Selection
To define an output, tap
Stream Setup
on the
Appliance Manager
screen. On the
Stream Setup
menu, choose the stream input, such as
Net#1
or
SDI#1
. Then tap the icon for the output you
want to define (
#1
,
#2
, or
#3
).
Output Stream Selection
The following table lists the types of outputs that can you create.
Output Protocols
Protocol
Purpose
UDP with TS envelope
Data delivered with user datagram protocol and a transport stream
wrapper. This can be used to send the stream to a satellite link or to other
encoders or servers. See page 17.
RTP with TS envelope
Similar to the UDP method, this output type delivers data using a
standards-based RTP packet format. See page 17.
HTTP with TS envelope
This is a pull method that allows a client such as a server to request the
stream using an HTTP URL. This method can be used to work around
restrictive firewalls. See page 18.
HLS - HTTP Live Streaming
HLS output delivers transport stream files over HTTP. It is used with iOS
devices such as the iPad as well as compatible devices. See page 19.
Smooth Streaming push
Not currently supported.
RTMP push with FLV
envelope
This method uses Flash packaging along with the RTMP protocol. You
can use this method to deliver the stream to a Flash Media Server. See
page 21.
