Software-based Transcoder Installation

Software based transcoding uses AVCODEC and x264 and will operate on any hardware configuration supported by the Zixi Broadcaster, including on-premise hardware and cloud-based hardware and on X86-64 and ARM64 processors, but excluding MacOS.

Hardware Requirements

The software-based codec option doesn't have special hardware-requirements, however more powerful CPUs will support more transcoding channels with more profiles. To learn more about Zixi Broadcaster's hardware requirements, refer to the Zixi Installation Guide.

Operating System Requirements

The operating system requirements are listed in the Zixi Installation Guide.
