Field description
Usage tips
from 30000 to 30030. Ensure
that you select ports that are
NOT being used by the Content
Server.
User name
The user name to authenticate
to the streaming server.
Password/Password
confirm
The password to authenticate to
the streaming server.
Use default live
URLs
Select to use live URLs
generated by the Content
Server.
Use alternate live
URLs
Select to supply your own URLs
for live streaming. Enter the
URLs for Main and Dual video
streams and choose whether
you want the filename (in this
case the sdp filename) to be
appended to the alternate URL.
(A Session Description Protocol or sdp file is
automatically generated by the Content
Server. The QuickTime or Darwin Streaming
Server uses this file to know how to stream
the media.)
Live multicast streaming settings
Multicast IP address
A destination multicast IP
address in the range 224.0.0.1
to 239.255.255.255. The
multicast address depends on
the network configuration.
Streaming port
range start
The port number for the start
streaming port range between
10000 and 65000. It must be an
even number.
TTL
The multicast time to live (TTL)
threshold.
This value tells the network how far
multicast packets should be allowed to travel
across the network. The default threshold is
LAN (TTL=32). The value ―Subnet‖ (TTL=1)
means that packets do not pass the first
network router and should mean a multicast
stream is viewable on any network, even
those not enabled for multicast, where the
client is on the same subnet as the Content
Server.
The efficacy of higher values: LAN
(TTL=32), WAN (64), Internet (128),
Unrestricted (255) depends on the network
configuration.
On demand settings
Write movies to the
default media
location
Select to have media to be
written to the Content Server‘s
default media location: this will
either be the E drive of the
Content Server or an alternate
storage location if you have a
NAS configured.
Do not select this option if you are streaming
from an external streaming server.
You can check the default media storage
location in the Server overview. The default
media location for MPEG-4 for QuickTime
files is (media location)\data\www.
