The DGy 201x offers multicast streaming capability to send live, single- channel, high resolution graphics images with audio from one DGy to one or more remote DGy units. Multicast streaming encodes the input signal on the host DGy for network transmission to remote client DGy codecs. Remote DGy codecs subscribe to a multicast stream, receive the stream, and instantly decode it for live viewing with synchronized audio. DGy decoder units can be in any physical location with no limit on the number of multicast participants.

Examples of multicast streaming performance are:

1280 x 1024 at up to 30 frames per second

1600 x 1200 at up to 20 frames per second.

The Table 3-2lists the basic information regarding Multicast streaming on the DGy 201x.

Multicast streaming uses a Class D IP address and port on the DGy 201x acting as the stream-out server. The client DGy 201x(s) can then subscribe to the stream by connecting to the IP address and port. Refer to Figure 1-3, page 9 for a setup diagram.

Note

The inclusion of audio and the audio frequency for multicast streaming will be set according to the settings in the Audio Settings dialog (Figure 3-16) of the Input Tab. The shortest latency occurs when Multicasting only video. Latency increases with a decrease in audio frequency. For the lowest latency while Multicasting with audio, set the audio frequency to 44.1 kHz.
