Audio Bitrate: Similar to the video bitrate settings. Use this to adjust the audio bitrate, if enabled.
Output Resolution: Adjust the T-RAX encoder’s streaming resolution. Depending on your network
and streaming conditions, you can scale the encoder’s video to a smaller size, or adjust the video
stream’s frame rate to maintain video quality.
Key Frame Interval: Adjusts amount of time between full picture refreshes. By default, the encoder
generates one key frame every two seconds.
Text Overlay: Enter your desired title text here. Select Show Time to display the encoder’s system
time. The title text is also used as your channel name, and the default name is ‘Channel 1.’
DECODER
The Decoder Settings panel allows you to configure your Decoder card to receive streams from the
Encoder. Before using the Decoder, ensure that the Encoder is on the same network, using the same
streaming method. Select from the list of available Encoder streams in Cards>Configuration. Select
Edit, then select one of three streaming methods from drop-down menu.
Teradek Stream (TDS)
Only Teradek Devices will be able to transmit or receive streams in Teradek Stream Mode. Make
sure the encoder card is configured to stream to the external T-RAX IP that corresponds to the
decoder card. Select Teradek Stream from the Decoder Mode drop-down menu, select either UDP or
Multicast as the streaming protocol, then select Apply.
