This enables the Broadcaster to send a UDP stream. The UDP stream is not protected by the Zixi protocol. The UDP streams can be one of the following types:

...

ParameterDescription
Output Parameters

Host

Specify the destination IP address or URL.

Port

Specify the target UDP port.

TTL

Specify the time-to-live (TTL). Used mainly to limit the range (or “scope”) of a multicast transmission. Leaving it as blank uses the default value specified by the operating system.

Smoothing [mms]

Enables transmission of the output at the correct rate. Required when the receiving device is sensitive and can’t lock on to the stream (in such a case, the recommended latency is 100 - 1000 ms).

RTP

Enables use of the Real-time Transport Protocol.

SMPTE 2022 FEC:

Disables the FEC or specifies the type of FEC matrix to D1/ D2.

Info

This setting can be modified without interrupting an existing stream.


Bind to IP

Select from the drop-down list the local IP address to be used for this Output, OR select Any to enable any IP to be used.

Local Port

Specify from which local port to source the stream, if desired (instead of randomly chosen by the operating system).

ReMuxingSelect this checkbox to enable remuxing from VBR MPEG-TS to MPEG-TS  CBR (used for professional IRDs).
Remux to bitrate [kbps]:Specify the CBR bitrate to target for a remuxed stream.
Buffer Size [ms]Specify the size of the buffer that will be used for the remixing. A larger buffer increases the quality, but also increases latency.
No NULL PacketsSelect this option to re-multiplex the stream to CBR but remove the NULL packets in order to maintain low bitrate.
Enable DecryptionSelect this checkbox to decrypt an encrypted stream.

Decryption type

If the stream has been encrypted, you can decrypt through the output by selecting this checkbox and specifying the type of ecryption that was used.

Select Automatic to decrypt a stream that has been encrypted using Automatic encryption.

Only if the stream has not been encrypted, select None (default).

Important Notice: if the stream has been encrypted you must decrypt it in the output.

Decryption keyIf the decryption type includes a key, enter the key to decrypt the stream during output.
Enable IFB/TalkbackSelect this checkbox to enable IFB/Talkback for one-way communication from the director or assistant director to on-air talent or a remote location. Selecting the checkbox allows the decoder with a Zixi Receiver to send audio back to the encoder with a Zixi Feeder. This offers the ability to, for example, give audio feedback to the camera operator.
PortThe port that will be used to send the audio feedback.
