To play a Zixi-enabled stream:
- Open VLC Player
On the Main Menu, click Media.
Sub-menu options are displayed.
- Click Open Network Stream.
- In the URL field, enter a Zixi stream URL, which includes the following structure:
- Zixi://<IP_Address_OR_FQDN_Of Zixi_Broadcaster>:<Output Port>/<channel name>
For example: zixi://demo.zixi.com:2077/sample1 - Remote-ID configuration - if you would like to use a specific username/session (password), for example, in case the broadcaster is configured with authorization or you already have a predefined output with specific remote-id, you can do so by adding username:password to the zixi URI. for example: zixi://user:pass@host:port/stream
- Click Play.
