Parameter

Description

Stream ID

Specify the unique identifier for this stream.

Type

Select the desired type for the RTMP stream:

Push – the stream is pushed to the Zixi MediaConnect Feeder. No additional connection parameters need to be filled. If the stream name will match, the stream will be inputted.

Pull – Zixi MediaConnect Feeder will initiate the stream by accessing it through the following parameters defined below.

URL (for Pull)

Type the Stream URL from which the Zixi Broadcaster will access. Use the following URL format: rtmp://host:[port]/app/stream.

You can define RTMPS clients with the proven security of a secure socket layer (SSL), by using the rtmps:// url

Stream Name (for Pull)

Type the unique name for the stream that has been defined in the RTMP server.

User Name (for Pull)

Specify the user name to authenticate on the remote RTMP server.

Password (for Pull)

Specify the password that is used for authorization on the remote RTMP server.

Ignore TLS certificate

Select this option when connecting to a trusted server that does not have a valid certificate. When this option is selected, Zixi Broadcaster will ignore the TLS certificate errors.

Disconnect if inactive

Disconnects the connection if the stream is inactive.

Recording Parameters

Select this checkbox to customize the 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:

  • %S=stream id - optional.

  • %Y=year - optional

  • %M=month - optional

  • %D=day - optional

  • %T=HH.MM.SS creation time - mandatory

For example, the following pattern %Y_recording%T.ts will generate the following file name 2017_recording15:32:35.ts.
