Live Protocols

The Live Protocols screen enables the configuration of the HTTP/HTTPS/RTMP server that will broadcast the streams using live streaming protocols, particularly for adaptive streaming and internet protocols.

Field	Description
HTTP Server
HTTP/HTTPS Server Public IP	Override the Zixi IP (e.g. download.Zixi.com) with a public IP.
Enable HTTP Server	Enable a non-secure connection over HTTP.
HTTP Server Port	Defines the HTTP Server Port. Default:7777
Enable HTTPS Server	Enable a secure connection over HTTPS.
Enable FLV	Enable the streaming via the FLV protocol.
Enable HLS	Enable the streaming via the HLS protocol.
Enable HDS	Enable the streaming via the HDS protocol.
Enable MPEG-DASH	Enable the streaming via the MPEG-DASH protocol.
Enable SHOUTcast	Enable the streaming via the SHOUTcast protocol.
HLS Chunk Duration [secs]	Configuration of the duration in seconds of HLS chunks for adaptive streaming. Typically 2- to 4-seconds long.
HLS Chunk Count	Defines how many chunks are in a playlist
HLS DVR Maximum Recording Duration [HH:MM]	Defines the maximum recording duration for HLS DVR. Default: 24 hours.
RTMP Server
Enable RTMP Server	Enables Zixi Broadcaster to handle incoming RTMP streams.
RTMP Server Port	The port through which the RTMP stream will be transmitted. Default: 1935
Allow Automatic RTMP Input	Automatically creates an RTMP input without the need to define it in the Input screen.
Allow Automatic RTMP Output	Automatically creates an RTMP output without the need to define it in the Output screen. This works in tandem with Zixi Feeder (Remote RTMP Output setting, which enables sending a Zixi-protected stream to Zixi Broadcaster and then Zixi Broadcaster automatically outputs the stream as RTMP) and SDK (which includes a zixi_rtmp_out_config option). By enabling this option, the RTMP streams will be automatically created as they arrive into Zixi Broadcaster and displayed in the Output screen.
