ZiXi Zixi Broadcaster supports the following output types:

• UDP – Target is a UDP or RTP stream, over unicast or multicast.
• RTMP – Real Time Messaging Protocol streams can be played on systems that accept this protocol as input. Originally designed to enable Adobe® Flash® streams to be sent between a server and a client, RTMP has become a popular protocol for streaming into content-delivery networks (CDNs).
• Pull Stream – Pull streams are ZiXi Zixi protocol streams destined for ZiXi Zixi Receivers. ZiXi Zixi Broadcaster can offer status and statistics for a stream that is being pulled from it by another device. You normally do not need to set up a Pull output stream in ZiXi Zixi Broadcaster. If your application uses ZiXi Zixi Receiver, you should configure the stream as input on ZiXi Zixi Receiver and point it to the IP address and output port (default 2077) of the ZiXi Zixi Broadcaster. ZiXi Zixi Receiver will pull the stream and automatically create the proper output definition in the ZiXi Zixi Broadcaster.
• Push Stream – Push streams are ZiXi Zixi protocol streams destined for other ZiXi Zixi Broadcasters and “Accept mode” ZiXi Receivers.

• Zixi Receivers.
• HTTP Push - The HTTP Push output stream can be 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 The configuration of the stream includes the option to delete outdated stream fragments on the server.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.
• S3 Bucket - The HTTP output stream (HLS or DASH) can be pushed to an AWS S3 Bucket. The native S3 support includes the ability to configure the S3 authentication credential, including the Region, Access Key, and Secret Key.

When Zixi Receiver pulls a stream, a Pull stream definition is generated automatically in ZiXi Zixi Broadcaster, the stream is identified in the Name and Destination columns of ZiXi Zixi Broadcaster with the ID and IP address of the ZiXi Zixi Receiver that pulls the stream.

Automated Output Configuration with Output Templates

Instead of manually creating an output and then connecting the output to an input, you can define output templates with rules for automatic creation of outputs with predefined settings. The template includes an Input pattern. When an input pattern matches the pattern of an incoming input stream, the output is created automatically. For more information about Output Templates, see Using Output Templates.
