Transport Stream over TCP Pull
Select this option to connect to a remote Transport Stream server such as the Teradek Sputnik using the
TCP protocol.
Enter the hostname and port of the remote Transport Stream server
VLC
The VLC option uses the free VLC Media Player software to connect to the stream.
This requires installing a special version of VLC which can be downloaded and installed from here:
http://www.vmix.com/vlcdownload
vMix currently supports only RTMP, UDP, RTP, RTSP and TS streams using this method.
Other stream types such as HLS and M3U8 are not supported.
SRT (Caller, Listener, Rendezvous)
See SRT Input for more information
Buffer
The network buffer in milliseconds can be configured to reduce jitter when receiving high latency network
streams.
For local network streams, this should be set between 0 and 500 milliseconds or 1000 to 5000 milliseconds
for Internet streams.
Low Latency Mode
Local streaming devices such as the Teradek cube support a delay of less than 5 frames in Low Latency
Mode.
To use this mode, set the Buffer to 0 and tick the Low Latency Mode checkbox.
NOTE: If this option is enabled and the stream does not support Low Latency the video will show
compression artefacts and will play back at a lower frame rate.

To connect to an SRT source, select the Stream / SRT option from the Add Input window and select either
SRT (Caller), SRT (Listener) or SRT (Rendezvous) from the Stream Type dropdown.
