Chapter 2 Getting to Know the Cisco Digital Media Encoder 2200

Encoder Preset (A, B, and C)

The next series of fields activate the Real Encoder’s filters to improve video and audio quality. These filter settings will depend upon the type of content you are streaming and your subjective preference. It is recommended you experiment with these settings and view their results on a test capture.

The Cisco Digital Media Encoder 2200 features integrated de-interlacing and inverse telecine filters that automatically apply when needed. This allows the encoder to perform at maximum efficiency.

Note We recommend that you do not enable the Real Encoder de-interlace and inverse telecine filters since applying filters multiple times can produce undesirable results and consume additional system resources.

Enable SureStream™: SureStream allows you to encode the broadcast stream for multiple audiences. However, each primary stream or substream you choose increases the processor load during encoding and adds to the outgoing bandwidth requirements. For example, with SureStream enabled, you can choose the 56k Dial-up audience and the 128k Dual ISDN audience. In addition, with SureStream enabled, the encoding might require twice as much processing power.

Regardless of whether or not you enable SureStream, you must choose at least one Audience Selection for your stream.

You can also choose to output to a file while streaming or output only to a file. Type in a unique name for the file.

Note If you use the same name as a current file, the current file will be overwritten.

After you have input your settings, click the Submit button at the bottom of the page to save your changes.
