| 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 | Specifies which of the local IP address should be used. Select one of the local IP addresses in the drop-down menu. | |
| 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. Requires enabling Multicast Pull in the Settings. | |
| 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. (for more information, see Encrypting an Input Stream in Zixi Broadcaster) | |
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. |
