The HTTP Push output stream can be encapsulated in HLS or DASH.  The source of the output stream is a predefined adaptive group that has been configured in the Adaptive Groups screen. The configuration of the stream includes the option to delete outdated stream fragments on the server. SCTE-35 markers in the source input will be preserved and used to segment the stream for both HLS and DASH encapsulation. Output streams can be pushed to one Zixi Broadcasters or Zixi Receiver.
