Information about configuration of transport streams.
On picture below, you can see configuration, named MUX. It consists of two services with settings
for h264 and AAC streams. Output from multiplexer is directed to 230.0.0.1:1200 with 4 Mbps speed.
The stream is configured properly and has status (OK)
Hardware
Information about capture cards.
Card SL MH4LM is used in this example. There are two inputs – Channel #1 CVBS (analog) и
Channel #3 SD-SDI (digital).
During first installation, you need to setup interface in order to be able to operate.
Stream MultiEncoder supports the following inputs:
CVBS (NTSC, PAL, SECAM)
SD-SDI (SMPTE-259M, 10 bit, 270 Mbit/s)
HD-SDI (SMPTE-292M, 10 bit, 1,5 Gbit/s)
ASI
Scale can be used for custom re-scaling.
Select channel for work with Stream MultiEncoder using button . . However, it is
recommended to check functionality of the capture card and settings for its inputs.
You can preview input signal using button .
Preview window will show up in place of label .
Image, received from generator of test signal TPG-8, proves that all setting are correct. If you do
