| Field | Description |
|---|---|
Authorization | Enables authorization |
Type | Default: None - authorization will be defined in the Input and Output streams. In this case you will need to define the password in the Input and the Output streams. Text File – this option manages authorizations in a text file. This option is useful for large OTT operations, as it does not require configuration for every user. The text file contains pairs of stream name and password that are used for the input streams. For the outputs, it contains the stream name, user and password of the viewer. HTTP Server – ZiXi Broadcaster will generate an HTTP request to an external server on every connection. Linux Server – uses the built-in authorization of the operating system. Global Password – a single password that will be used for all access requests. If you select this option, you must define the global password in the Parameter field below. Other override authorization techniques are available. For more information contact ZiXi support. |
Allow Automatic Push inputs | If this checkbox is selected, the Zixi Broadcaster will automatically create an input stream each time it receives a push stream from a source. However, if this checkbox is not selected, only predefined Push Input streams with the defined credentials will be allowed in (this is the default setting and the behavior in previous versions). Default: not selected.

Allow Automatic pull outputs | If this checkbox is selected, any Zixi Receiver that requests a Pull output will be granted access. In this case, a Pull output will be automatically created in the Zixi Broadcaster (this is the default setting and the behavior in previous versions). However, if this checkbox is not selected, only predefined Pull output streams with the defined credentials will be pulled by the Zixi Receiver. Default: selected. |
