Select a channel and URLs for Kaltura webcasting events

You can select which Pearl Mini channel is used for scheduled and ad hoc webcasting events. Optionally, you
can stream the event to a secondary backup stream URL.

When a webcasting event is scheduled in Kaltura or started from Pearl Mini as an unscheduled ad hoc event, the
stream URL and other event settings are sent to Pearl Mini. The Kaltura ingestion settings are applied
automatically to Pearl Mini.

When you create a Kaltura webcasting event on Pearl Mini, you have the option to use the primary and backup
URLs supplied by Kaltura for the stream or to choose a stream destination that is created locally for the channel
on Pearl Mini. Alternative streaming destinations must already be configured for the channel being webcast.
Select the Auto option to use the primary and backup URLs supplied by Kaltura. Auto is the default setting.
