Displaying Stream Content

media content. If the network can only handle a throughput of 4 Mbps from the encoder, it is recommended that you use something less than or equal to the High Quality encoder profile.

To receive and display content via a third-party media player (such as the VLC media player):

Verify you are using the latest VLC Player application available at:

http://www.videolan.org/vlc/.

UDP transmission of a stream only requires one instance of the VLC Player to display the combined A/V content.

Note that if you are going to try to stream both audio and video to a target computer as separate streams, you will need to open two separate instances of this same application.

One window will display the video portion of the stream (provided by the Target Port field on the Streaming Profiles page), whereas the second window provides the audio portion of the stream (provided by the Target Audio Port field on the Streaming Profiles page).

Obtain the IP Address of the target computer by using the ipconfig command. This process is described in greater detail later in this section.
