Figure 26. Video Encoder Configuration Page

The top panel of the video encoder configuration page (A on figure 26) provides the following information:

Name — This field displays the name that is applied to the video port, that is, the name of the image stream. The name is displayed next to the video icon in the configuration panel of the device page. Note that this need not be the same as the name applied to the physical unit itself. You can change the name to a more meaningful value for your installation. Change the device name as follows:

1. Highlight the existing device name.

2. Type the new name.

3.Click the update button.

NOTE: Spaces within names can cause issues when controlling the system

using a third-party control system. Extron recommends avoiding spaces

within names..

Input Mode — The VN-Matrix 325 codec supports a fully automatic detection of the connected signal format. No manual configuration is required.

Current Mode — This value reports the currently detected source type.

Source Status — This value reports the status of the input connection.

Unplugged — Indicates that either there is no source connected or no invalid video is present.

Active — Indicates that a valid video connection is present.

Streams panel

The bottom, Streams, panel of the video encoder Configuration page (B on figure 26) provides details of any active video encoder streams. The data transport method, TCP or RTP, is defined on the decoder configuration page (see “Configure Encoders or Decoders”). Multicasting is selected on this page (see “Enable multicast streaming“ to select the multicast and “Data Transport Methods“ for definitions of the methods).

The New Export Stream function is not supported.
