Adding File Streams

this input creates a file input for the zixi broadcaster from a local or mounted disk and subsequently streams it to the end user if the stream is an mpts stream, you can either upload it as an mpts file or you can demux it into separate spts input streams to demux the mpts stream, create the input stream, by following the instructions below, and then follow the instruction in the demuxing an mpts stream docid 8ufjci0medmcntvr704 q section to add a file stream in the zixi broadcaster navigation menu, click the inputs tab in the menu bar, click new input the add a new input stream window is displayed enter the unique stream i d note this must be identical (case sensitive) to the stream name configured in zec select the maximum concurrent connections to this stream from the max outputs drop down list default unlimited select the show in matrix check box to display this stream in the matrix (see using the matrix docid\ kyky08nfft6ygizignhq5 ) default selected select file for the input stream specify the stream parameters (see adding file streams docid 5jywr6abzyg5vt131smew ) if you want to enable time shift , select this checkbox (see input stream parameter table) the stream will be recorded and broadcasted after the specified delay the time shift feature is typically used to broadcast a live event across time zones (due to the time differences between locations) if you want to enable multicast on pull outputs , select this checkbox (see input stream parameter table) if you want to enable encryption , select this checkbox (see input stream parameter table) for more information, see encrypting an input stream in zixi broadcaster docid 5sh sqkz1lgkmgzjsqrzq click ok the “input added” message appears on the top of the screen the push stream from the zec is added to the zixi broadcaster and now appears in the list of streams available in the zixi broadcaster inputs ui input stream parameters table parameter description enable encryption select this checkbox to encrypt the input stream for more information, see encrypting an input stream in zixi broadcaster docid 5sh sqkz1lgkmgzjsqrzq enable multicast on pull outputs select this checkbox to enable the transmission of this stream’s outputs as multicast a zixi receiver that will pull the stream will receive it in multicast by default, zixi broadcaster is configured to allow transparent fallback to unicast if it is out of the lan requires enabling multicast pull in the settings enable time shift select this checkbox to record the stream content and broadcast it after a specified delay to deploy an input stream that uses the current stream's time shift, you need to configure a "delayed" input stream (see adding delayed streams https //zixidocumentation atlassian net/wiki/spaces/117/pages/4887938857/adding+delayed+streams adding delayed streams docid 9yv8fx2x pdvy2qibluz3 encryption key (for encryption enabled) click generate to generate an encryption key the generated encryption key must be sent to the end user to decipher the received encoded stream encryption type (for encryption enabled) specify the type of encryption (aes 128/192/256) maximum delay \[hh\ mm\ ss] (for time shift enabled) specify the maximum time delay of this input multicast only (for multicast enabled) if desired, specify force multicast only outputs a zixi receiver will receive it in multicast (unless it is out of the lan in which case it will relay in as unicast) you can also force multicast only outputs path type the local or mounted (linux) disk or click the adjacent browse button to select the desired one the suffix ts indicates a transmitted stream advanced mode the fields in the table below are optional and available only in advanced mode to enter advanced mode add the url parameter ?advanced=1 to the zixi broadcaster url in your browser and press enter/return to reload the page note the advanced mode settings are generally intended for advanced users and special cases if you do not understand the settings, you should probably accept the default values general latency offset \[ms] support {{scte 35}} injection scte 35 pid inject metadata remove old scte 35 packets keep stream {{cbr}} stream parameters synchronize playback checkbox compression checkbox fast connect checkbox
