Enable HDS | Enable the streaming via the HDS protocol. | |
Enable MPEG-DASH | Enable the streaming via the MPEG-DASH protocol. | |
Enable SHOUTcast | Enable the streaming via the SHOUTcast protocol. | |
HLS Chunk Duration [secs] | Configuration of the duration in seconds of HLS chunks for adaptive streaming. Typically 2- to 4-seconds long. | |
| Enable HLS Fast playback | Enables low latency HLS and DASH. When this setting is enabled, all input streams on the Zixi Broadcaster will be published to the origin server as HLS streams, so only enable this feature if it will be actually used. | |
| Sub GOP HLS Fast playback | Select this option to enable publishing of HLS chunk before the response is complete. This means that Zixi Broadcaster will start sending the HTTP response as chunks of data when they are ready before the complete response is available. | |
HLS Chunks Count | Defines how many chunks are in a playlist | |
| DASH chunk duration [secs] | Configuration of the duration in seconds of MPEG-DASH chunks for adaptive streaming. Default: 5 seconds | |

| Allow Automatic HTTP Push input | Automatically creates an HTTP Push input without the need to define it in the Input screen. | |
| Allow Automatic HTTP Pull output | Automatically creates an HTTP Pull output without the need to define it in the Output screen. This works in tandem with Zixi Feeder (Remote HTTP Pull Output setting, which enables sending a Zixi-protected stream to Zixi Broadcaster and then Zixi Broadcaster automatically outputs the stream as HTTP Pull) and SDK (which includes a zixi_http_pull_out_config option). By enabling this option, the HTTP Pull streams will be automatically created as they arrive into Zixi Broadcaster and displayed in the Output screen. | RTMP Server |
Enable RTMP Server | Enables Zixi Broadcaster to handle incoming RTMP streams. | |
RTMP Server Port | The port through which the RTMP stream will be transmitted. Default: 1935 | |
Allow Automatic RTMP Input | Automatically creates an RTMP input without the need to define it in the Input screen. | |
Allow Automatic RTMP Output | Automatically creates an RTMP output without the need to define it in the Output screen. This works in tandem with Zixi Feeder (Remote RTMP Output setting, which enables sending a Zixi-protected stream to Zixi Broadcaster and then Zixi Broadcaster automatically outputs the stream as RTMP) and SDK (which includes a zixi_rtmp_out_config option). By enabling this option, the RTMP streams will be automatically created as they arrive into Zixi Broadcaster and displayed in the Output screenNetwork Settings | |
