MPEG-TS streams using UDP push

l

Video – H.264

l

Audio – MP3 or AAC, if audio is configured.

To configure MPEG-TS with UDP push and enable SAP:

1. Login to the Admin panel as admin, see

Connect to the Admin panel

.

2. From the Channel(s) menu, select the channel and click Streaming. The Streaming configuration page

opens.

3. Click New stream and select MPEG-TS UDP push.

4. Enter the destination multicast IP address where the broadcast can be viewed.

A IPv4 multicast address range is an address between 224.0.0.0 to 239.255.255.255.
Contact your System Administrator for the specific address to use.

5. Enter the destination port number through which the media will stream.

6. (Optional) To advertise your stream to a media player over a local network, do the following:

a. Check SAP announcement to enable advertising your stream over a local network. When this is

enabled and a multicast IP address is configured, your stream is displayed in the playlist of the
local media player.

b. Enter a multicast IP address in the SAP announcement IP field. If your media player is configured

to receive multicast streams from an IP address that is different from the default address
224.2.127.254, you may need to contact your system administrator for a specific multicast IP
address.

c. Enter a channel number in the Channel number field to identify your stream in the media player.

By default, the Channel number is the channel identifier.

When a channel number value is not specified, viewers cannot select a channel
from the set-top box or Smart TV .

d. 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.

7. Click Apply.

8. Select Start when you're ready to start streaming.
