RTMP Output
The output type
RTMP push with FLV envelope
uses the RTMP protocol to transmit the output as
a Flash stream. You can use this output type to deliver the output to a Flash Media Server.
RTMP Output Screen
Tip:
Using the browser interface (see page 7), you can deliver the RTMP stream
to the Akamai content distribution network.
Target URI
In the
Target URI
field, use the virtual keyboard (see page 6) to specify the address of the target
server. The URI specifies the RTMP protocol and the server’s IP address. Typically it also
includes the
live
application name. For example:
rtmp://183.43.12.21:1935/live
Tip:
The port value is not required as long as the destination server uses the
default RTMP port of
1935
to receive the Flash stream.
RTMP Name
For
RTMP Name
, set the name of the stream delivered to the server. This name is appended to
target URI value. For example:
flashlive
Note:
Flash stream variables (such as
%b
to indicate the stream bit rate) are
not
supported in the stream name.
Helix Media Server
The
Helix Media Server
output type delivers the encoded stream to the embedded Helix Server.
You can use this method to make the stream available to popular media clients. You may also
want to use it to forward the stream to content distribution networks or to implement features
such as live stream archiving.
