Running the Decoder
The Z3-DM816X-RPS RDK can also be used to decode streams. This section describes how to quickly get
decode up and running. A second Z3-DM816X-RPS RDK is required in these instructions. If the user has only
one Z3-DM816X-RPS RDK, they can also try using an alternate source for the video stream. In that case,
the decoder settings may have to be adjusted.
