Input Stream Parameters Table
| Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
| Stream ID | Specifies the unique identifier for this stream. |
| Max Outputs | Specifies the maximum number of allowed outputs. Default: Unlimited. |
| Show in Matrix | Show input in matrix. |
| Stream parameters | |
| Port | Specifies the port to listen on. This port must be openon all firewalls between the ZiXi Broadcaster and other devices it is communicating with. |
Multicast IP | If multicast, type “join” in the Multicast IP address (or leave blank in the case of Unicast). |
SSM Source | Specifies the source IP for a source-specific multicast. |
Type | Select the appropriate protocol type from the drop-down list. |
Bind to IP |
|
| Max. bitrate [kbps] | Specifies the maximum expected bitrate for memory allocation. Recommended: 2X the actual bitrate, which will prevent buffer overruns (especially with VBR streams). Default: 8000. Note – Overflows will typically occur when the Max Bitrate isn’t sufficient. |
| Enable time shift | Enables a delayed transmission of this input. |
| Maximum delay [hh:mm:ss] | Specifies the maximum time delay of this input. |
| Transmit as multicast | Enables transmission of this stream’s outputs as multicasts. A ZiXi receiver will receive it in multicast (unless it is out of the LAN in which case it will receive as unicast). You can also force Multicast only outputs. |
| Multicast-Only | If desired, specify multicast only outputs. |
| Enable Encryption | |
Encryption type
| Specify the type of Encryption (AES 128/192/256). Selection of Automatic will generate an AES 256 bit encryption and exchange it securely between the applications automatically. |
Encryption key | Click Generate and the encryption key for the input stream will appear in the adjacent text box. Send it to the end-user to decipher the received encoded stream. |
| Recording parameters | |
Max recorded file duration [hours] | Specifies the maximum time allotted for recording a video stream. Default: 2 hours |
Keep recorded files for [hours] | Specifies the maximum time for storing the recording. |
