| Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
| Stream Parameters | |
| Password (Optional) | If desired, enter a password string to use for authentication (must be identical to the string configured on the Feeder) |
| Latency [ms] | Specify the maximal latency that will override the latency that was defined on the Feeder (in ms). Default: Remote configuration (i.e. use the latency was set on the feeder). (See Latency Considerations) |
| Point to point only | Selecting this checkbox transmits the stream directly (point-to-point) from the Feeder to the Receiver, while only delivering messaging to the Broadcaster. In case there is a problem with the P2P connection, it will re-route the transmission through the Zixi Broadcaster. |
| Disable P2P Fallback | Selecting this checkbox will allow only P2P (disabling the option to re-route traffic though the Zixi Broadcaster) |
| ID of high priority source | Setting the ID of the source that will be granted a higher priority during connection. A feeder with this ID will disconnect other existing sources. |
| Enable time shift | |
| Maximum delay [hh:mm:ss] | Specify the time of the delayed transmission of this stream. Maximum: 24 hours. |
| Transmit as multicast | Selecting this checkbox enables the transmission of this stream’s outputs as multicast. A Zixi receiver that will pull the stream will receive it in multicast. By default Zixi Broadcaster is configured to allow transparent fallback to unicast if it is out of the LAN. Requires enabling Multicast Pull in the Settings. |
| Multicast Only | Selecting this checkbox will force the transmission of this stream only in multicast. |
Decrypt stream | Decrypts the Input stream. Please note that the stream will not be encrypted as it passes through the Zixi path. For more information, see Decrypting an Input Stream in Zixi Broadcaster. |
Decryption type (for Decrypt stream enabled) | Specify the type of encryption that is being used in the stream. |
Decryption key (for Decrypt stream enabled) | Specify the key for decryption. |
Enable Encryption | Encrypts the Input stream. For more information, see Encrypting an Input Stream in Zixi Broadcaster. |
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. |
| Recording parameters | |
| Max recorded file duration [hours] | Specify the maximum time allotted for recording a video stream. Default: 2 hours |
| Keep recorded files for [hours] | Specify the maximum time for storing the recording. Default: 0 hours |
Custom Path | Optionally specify a storage location for the recorded files that is relative to the root folder. This location bypasses the location specified as the root folder in the Settings > General screen. |
File Name Template | Specify the file name pattern that Zixi will use to generate when saving the recorded content. A separate file will be generated for each recording up to the time specified in the Max recorded file duration parameter (see above). After this duration a new file will be generated. The file name pattern can include any string and up to five variables listed below. Only the %T=HH.MM.SS creation time is mandatory. You can change the order of these variables and add text as long as you maintain the legitimate structure of the file in Linux and Windows:
For example, the following pattern %Y_recording%T.ts will generate the following file name 2017_recording15:32:35.ts. |
| Decrypt stream | Decrypts the Input stream. Please note that the stream will not be encrypted as it passes through the Zixi path. For more information, see Decrypting an Input Stream in Zixi Broadcaster. |
| Decryption type | Specify the type of encryption that is being used in the stream. For more information, see Decrypting an Input Stream in Zixi Broadcaster. |
| Decryption key | Specify the key for decryption . |
