4-1 Stream your video

When a channel number value is not specified, viewers cannot select a channel from the set-

top box or Smart TV .

 13. Enter a name for a group of streams in the text box next to Group name. Since media players simply

present a list of available streams, you can organize your streams into multiple folders or in cases where

folders are not displayed, use dot separator hierarchy to help your viewers filter out unwanted streams

by category.

 14. Click Apply. To view the stream, open the URL in a media player, for example:

udp://@ip:port

For example: udp://@226.10.24.32:7000

To view the stream when SAP announce has been set and the stream is advertised from a media player,

set-top-box or Smart TV, refer to

Viewing with SAP Announce.
