The multicast address can be the same for multiple streams. However it will be
necessary to use a different port in each case so that multiple data streams are
not sent simultaneously using the same port and multicast address.
Note
You must set the parameters for each encoder (video input) and for each
stream individually. The numbering follows the labeling of the video inputs
on the actual unit.
Multicast address video 1: to Multicast address video 4:
Enter a valid multicast address for each stream from the relevant encoder (video
input) to be operated in multicast mode (duplication of the data streams in the
network).
With the setting 0.0.0.0 the encoder for the relevant stream operates in multi-uni-
cast mode (copying of data streams in the unit). The VIP X1600 module sup-
ports multi-unicast connections for up to five simultaneously connected receiv-
ers.
Note
Duplication of data places a heavy demand on the unit and can lead to im-
pairment of the image quality under certain circumstances.
Port:
Assign a different port to each data stream if there are simultaneous data
streams at the same multicast address.
Enter the port address of the required stream here.
Streaming:
Click the checkbox to activate multicast streaming mode for the relevant stream.
An enabled stream is indicated by a check mark.
