Live Streaming

The RealPresence Capture Server system supports live streaming of video sources, such as live video conference or dual stream sent by endpoints or MCUs with a highest resolution of 1080p and a maximum bandwidth of 4M. Those live streaming videos are saved in the system.

Live streaming supports dual streaming rates; this allows you to choose the appropriate bandwidth to view video based on your network condition.

Multi-bitrate Live Streaming

If the recording template is configured, the Capture Server system could send a specific resolution live stream to low bandwidth sites and a higher quality resolution live stream to high bandwidth sites without creating separate video broadcasts.

1Configure the external media server on the RealPresence Capture Server system and enable live streaming.

2Configure a recording template that enables live streaming.

3Configure a VRR that enables external media server.

4Record a meeting using the VRR that has the external media server enabled.
