Output Stream Parameters Table

ParameterDescription
Output Parameters

Stream ID

Specify the unique Stream ID that the remote receiver expects (recommended – identical to ‘Input Stream’).

Remote ID

Specifies the Receiver ID that allowed to pull that stream.

Password

Specifies a string that can be used to authenticate that the ZiXi Receiver is authorized to pull this stream (Optional).

 Latency [ms]

Specify the buffer size that ZiXi Broadcaster is keeping for error correction.

For example, 6000 milliseconds would ensure that the stream is protected for six seconds of errors in the network.

Default: Remote configuration.

Remote configuration – use the latency configured in the Receiver. Otherwise use a value to override the value configured in the Receiver.
