ZEC Adding SRT Client Outputs
2 min
the srt output can be pulled to/from an srt enabled device and is configured via zen master or zixi api only srt stands for ‘secure reliable transport’ and is an open source video transport protocol and technology stack srt uses secure streams and easy firewall traversal to optimize streaming performance and deliver high quality video over even the most unreliable networks to create an srt client output in the zec outputs page, click +new output the new output window is displayed type in the unique identifier for this output in the output name select an input stream to be made available on this output from the drop down list select the show in matrix check box to display this stream in the matrix (see zec using the matrix docid\ ofxethpsuo9eimqpwfzea ) default selected select srt client specify the output parameters (see output stream parameters table docid\ ccwfe1ba5of biwflrxyg below) you can decrypt an encrypted stream as it enters the zec to decrypt a stream, select the decrypt stream checkbox and fill in the parameters as described in the output stream parameters table docid\ ccwfe1ba5of biwflrxyg below for more information, see decrypting an output stream in zec docid\ fqloypidpib19cqfvu8rz click ok the new srt client output with its settings is created and now appears on the screen output stream parameters table parameter description output parameters host the destination host for the srt stream port specify the ports to which the stream will be pushed stream if the remote srt client is configured in a single port mode, enter the stream id if the remote srt client is configured in a multi port mode, leave this field blank password if you want the output stream to be encrypted , set a password the value should be between 10 to 80 characters the password value serves as a passphrase and is used to generate a hash of the password the passphrase serves both authentication and encryption purposes it is is not the aes key itself, but an input to a key derivation process that generates a 128, 192, or 256 bit key length see zec encrypting an srt output docid\ vyocukphz4 w3aufgcbly for more details latency specify the maximum latency of the stream in milliseconds default 1000 encryption type select the encryption type that will be used the final aes key length is established by combining the sender’s and the receiver’s key lengths during handshake see zec encrypting an srt output docid\ vyocukphz4 w3aufgcbly for more details bind to ip select from the drop down list the local ip address to be used for this output, or select any to enable any ip to be used local port specify from which local port to source the stream, if desired (instead of randomly chosen by the operating system) srt version enable decryption select this checkbox to decrypt an encrypted stream decryption type if the stream has been encrypted, you can decrypt it through the output by selecting this checkbox and specifying the type of encryption that was used select automatic to decrypt a stream that has been encrypted using automatic encryption only if the stream has not been encrypted, select none (default) important notice if the stream has been encrypted, you must decrypt it in the output decryption key if the decryption type includes a key, enter the key to decrypt the stream during output
