  4. Type a name for the stream in the Name field.

  5. For the Source, (as an example) use Video Encoder 0 and Audio Encoder 0 with no Metadata.

Note

By default, the SDI inputs are assigned to video encoders as follows:

  • Input 1 (SDI 1): Video Encoders 0 and 4

  • Input 2 (SDI 2): Video Encoders 1 and 5

  • Input 3 (SDI 3): Video Encoders 2 and 6

  • Input 4 (SDI 4): Video Encoders 3 and 7x

  1. To enable ad insertion, select the appropriate SDI input from the SCTE 35 drop-down menu (under Source). For more information, see Configuring Ad Insertion Sources

  2. For a basic MPEG-2 transport stream setup, under Streaming Parameters, select TS over UDP as the Protocol (keeping the default TS settings).

  3. Under Destination, type in the IP Address and Port number, for example, multicast address 225.6.7.8 and port 2000

  4. Leave the default values for the remaining Streaming parameters. See Stream Settings (in the Makito X4 Encoder User's Guide).

  5. Click Add Stream (for a new stream) or Apply (if modifying an existing stream).
