Output streams The HTTP Push output stream can be pushed to one or more Zixi Broadcasters and Zixi Receivers. You can specify multiple destinations (Broadcasters/Receivers) by adding them in the Links section. You can also split a single stream using multiple links and then bond them into a single stream in Zixi Broadcaster using the Bond Links feature. For each of these links, you can specify the max bitrate that can be used. In addition, some links may be specified as backups. The backup links will be used if the bandwidth across all the non-backup links are not enough for the stream (i.e. if a non-backup link is not available, it will not use the backup. Only if the accumulated bandwidth of non-backup links is not enough, then the Broadcaster will stream to a backup link). To Create a encapsulated in HLS or DASH. The source of the output stream is a predefined adaptive group that has been configured in the Adaptive Groups screen. The configuration of the stream includes the option to delete outdated stream fragments on the server. Output streams can be pushed to one Zixi Broadcasters or Zixi Receiver.

- Select the Show in Matrix check box to display this stream in the Matrix (see Using the Matrix). Default: Selected.
- Select Push.
- Do one of the following:
- Stream to multiple destinations - you can stream the same identical stream to multiple destinations by entering the destination parameters and then clicking the "+" button to add another destination (see Output Stream Parameters Table). Bonded link to a single destination - you can split the stream into multiple links, which will be forwarded to a single Zixi Broadcaster by selecting the Bond Links checkbox (see Broadcaster Output with Network Bonding). not selected.
- Click OK. The new Push Output with its settings is created and now appears on the screen.
