Configuring Decoder Streams
From the Streams Detail View, you can create streams and define the stream settings.
To add a stream:
- From the Streams List View, click
The New Stream (Detail View) opens. Add. - Under Content, type a name for the stream in the Name field.
Select the stream Protocol, either TS over UDP, TS over RTP, TS over SRT, or RTSP.
The remaining fields vary depending on the stream Protocol. For details see Stream Settings.Note
The Multicast address range is from
224.0.0.0
to239.255.255.255
. Multicast addresses from224.0.0.0
to224.0.0.255
are reserved for multicast maintenance protocols and should not be used by streaming sessions. We recommend that you use a multicast address from the Organization-Local scope (239.192.0.0/14
).Click Create to create the stream.
Tip
Intra-refresh (video encoding support) requires that the decoder and streams be started first.
- To view statistics for the stream, click Statistics. For details, see Stream Statistics.
- To return to the Streams List View, click the (Back) button.
The stream you have created is added to the list. The following example shows the List View after a stream has been created, but not yet bound to output interfaces. (Audio Talkback is available but not enabled.)
After streams have been bound to the SDI 1 and SDI 2 output interfaces (see Configuring Decoder Outputs), the outputs will be listed.
To edit a stream:
- From the Streams List View, click a link in the table to open the Streams Detail View.
- Select or enter the new value(s) in the appropriate field(s). For details see Stream Settings.
- To apply your changes, click Apply.
- To return to the Streams List View, click the (Back) button.
