"Compression Error"

error a "compression error" counter intuitively, this error actually indicates an error in decryption where the receiving side failed to decompress a packet if the compressed size of the packet is greater or equal to the original pcket size, the sender will send the original uncompressed packet resolution clients who see “compression errors” should check and troubleshoot their encryption settings known cases of this have been resolved in version 16 0 and up test by updating to a new stable version of the software if this is a udp source, test going into advanced settings (add ?advanced=1 to the url in your browser) on the broadcaster and toggling compression off and on and restart the stream with each toggle on a udp or srt stream, check the maximum bitrate settings on the input stream (either in the broadcaster or within zen master) increase bitrate headroom if traffic is spikey (access settings from the dropdown on the stream input see below) note max bitrate needs to be 1 5 2x the bitrate of the stream ie for a 9mbps stream, max bitrate should be a minimum of 13 5mbps ideally 18mbps udp/srt input advanced settings
