Streaming lets you broadcast your meeting to participants on the web. The web participants can listen to the meeting, see snapshots, but not participate themselves. Snapshots of current stream (if MultiSite), selfview, far end and DuoVideo streams are accessible via http. See Appendix 6 for descriptions of the possible snapshot files.

How to use Streaming:

1.Choose Streaming from the Call Menu to open the Streaming menu.

2.Press Start Streaming from the menu line. An indicator will appear on the screen when streaming is activated.

3.Press Stop Streaming to end streaming. Streaming will also end when you disconnect the call.

4.Press Streaming Settings if you want to change streaming settings (see Streaming Settings below)

How to view streaming from a PC:

1.After streaming is started, an easy way to view the streamed audio/video is to start your Web browser and enter the IP-address of the streaming system.

2.After the Web page of the system is shown, click on Streaming. Alternatively, enter http://<codec/ip-address>/showstream.ssi

Address

 

Address is defined as the IP-address of a streaming client, streaming

 

 

 

 

server or a multicast address. Giving an address in the range 224.0.0.1-

 

 

 

 

239.255.255.255 will broadcast the stream to any host that has joined

 

 

 

 

the specified multicast group. Specifying normal broadcast address

 

 

 

 

255.255.255.255 will broadcast to any members on the LAN.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Address Port

 

If several codec’s are streaming to the same IP-address, different ports

 

 

 

 

have to be used in order for the client to know which stream to receive.

 

 

 

 

If the first codec streams on port 2240 and the second codec on port

 

 

 

 

2250, the client has to specify which port to listen to. Video is

 

 

 

 

transmitted on the specified port; audio is transmitted on the port

 

 

 

 

number 4 greater than the specified video port, in this case 2244 and

 

 

 

 

2254.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

TTL/Router

 

This is used for streaming data to limit how many routers the data

 

 

Hops

 

should pass before it is rejected. If TTL is set to 2, data will not traverse

 

 

 

 

more than 2 router hops.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Streaming

 

ƒ Auto: Enables streaming of both local and far end video.
