Chapter 2 Getting to Know the Cisco Digital Media Encoder 2200
Encoder Preset (A, B, and C)
Note When you select AMR Encoder for audio, the audio will automatically be encoded using 8 kHz
mono for playback on cell phones. When you select AMR-WB for audio, you must change the
Audio Format to be 16 kHz, 16 bit, mono, for playback on cell phones.
The Audio Bitrate drop-down box provides you with several choices, ranging from 8 to 320.
The web interface for the encoder includes options for Streaming Properties and Advanced Streaming
Properties. As to the broadcast type you choose, you have the o ption to check the Enable Streaming
box. Please see the “Real Encoder Properties (Helix)” section on page 2-25 for a more detailed
description of enabling pull. Another option provides you with the abilities to Save to Portable Media
and provide a Media Title.
Under the Advanced Streaming Settings feature, you have the options to output to a file while
streaming, or only output to a file. You must type in a unique name and location for this file.
Check the Output to file box if you would like to save the encoded content to a file. Enter a file
destination in the field provided. By default, this folder is set to D:\AVFiles\Out.
Check the Save to Portable Media box if you would like to save the stream from portable media to a file.
Note Remember the file name is referenced to the encoder system not to the system running SCX Explorer.
When SCX Manager and SCX Explorer are not on the same computer, always start your browse for files
at My Network Places and work down or enter the entire file pathname beginning with the system name
(for example, \\fileserver\c\videos). If you simply enter a file name, you may inadvertently browse your
local computer when the media file resides on the remote computer.
