ZEC Add Output

This is an alternative method (shortcut) to adding an output to a specific input stream instead of configuring it through the Outputs screen. The available types of outputs are:

• • 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 – Pull streams are Zixi protocol streams destined for ZECs. In this case, the ZEC can offer status and statistics for a stream that is being pulled from it by another device.
  • Push – Push streams are Zixi protocol streams destined for other ZECs.
  • TCP - The TCP output can push the stream directly to a TCP socket or to an HTTP server.
  • 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group that has been configured in the Adaptive Groups The configuration of the stream includes the option to delete outdated stream fragments on the server. Output streams can be pushed to one ZECs or ZEC. 
  • AWS  – The HTTP output stream (HLS or DASH) can be pushed to an AWS S3 Bucket or too an Elemental MediStore. The native S3 support includes the ability to configure the S3 authentication credential, including the Region, Access Key, and Secret Key.
  • SRT Caller/Push – The SRT stream is pushed to an SRT-compatible target. The connection is initiated by ZEC.
  • SRT Listener/Pull – The SRT stream is pulled from the ZEC by an SRT Client. The connection is initiated by the target SRT client.
  • RIST - The RIST output stream can be pushed to an external target using Simple or Main Profile over unicast or multicast. The output stream can include Forward Error Correction (SMPTE-2022 FEC)

To Add Output:

1. In the ZEC Navigation menu, click the Inputs tab.
2. Click the Settings button , and then click New Output. The New Output window with the settings of the selected output stream is displayed. 
   
   
   
   
3. Follow the specific instructions of each output type from one of the following sections:
   • ZEC Adding UDP Outputs
   • ZEC Adding RTMP and RTMPS Outputs
   • ZEC Adding Pull Outputs
   • ZEC Adding Push Outputs
   • ZEC Adding TCP Outputs
   • ZEC Adding HTTP Push Outputs
   • ZEC Adding AWS Outputs
   • ZEC Adding RIST Outputs
4. Click OK. The New Output with its new settings takes effect.
