The Codian MCU supports streaming, which involves sending conference media (audio and video) to a remote
computer, allowing the user to watch and listen to a conference. The media flows in just one direction, so it is not
possible to actually contribute to a conference via streaming.
The streaming video may be delayed by approximately 4-10 seconds compared to the real-time video.
To view an active conference using streaming:
1. Go to and click next to the conference name.
2. Choose the Streaming rate. Refer to the table below for tips.
3. If you want to display and choose advanced streaming settings, click the link. Choose the settings you
require, referring to the table below for tips.
