Stream Parameters | |
Path | Type the local or mounted (Linux) disk or click the adjacent browse button to select the desired one. The suffix .ts indicates a transmitted stream. |
Enable multicast on pull outputs | Select this checkbox to enable the transmission of this stream’s outputs as multicast. A Zixi receiver ZEC that will pull the stream will receive it in multicast. By default, Zixi Broadcaster ZEC is configured to allow transparent fallback to unicast if it is out of the LAN. Requires enabling Multicast Pull in the Settings. |
Multicast Only (for Multicast enabled) | If desired, specify force multicast-only outputs. A Zixi receiver will receive it in multicast (unless it is out of the LAN in which case it will relay in as unicast). You can also force Multicast only outputs. |
Enable Encryption | Select this checkbox to encrypt the Input stream. For more information, see ZEC Encrypting an Input Stream. |
Encryption type (for Encryption enabled) | Specify the type of Encryption (AES 128/192/256). |
Encryption key (for encryption enabled) | Click Generate to generate an encryption key. The generated encryption key must be sent to the end-user to decipher the received encoded stream. |
