The Encoder Configuration has the below fields.
Fields | Description |
---|---|
Name | SDT channel name for the created mosaic. |
User Name / UUID | Unique username ID for the channel. |
Enabled | Double click on the toggle switch. When enabled (), displays the device is enabled, and the corresponding encoder is listed in the mosaics and vice versa. |
Codec Type | Mosaic stream codec type for compressed sources. (Mpeg2, H.264, H.265 LQ, H.265 HQ, H.264 HQ). *Please refer to the appendix Output Stream Specifications for the supported types. |
Linear Codec Type | Mosaic stream codec type for uncompressed sources. (2022-6, 2110-20). *Please refer to the appendix Output Stream Specifications for the supported types. |
SDI over IP format | The following standards are available for uncompressed sources.
|
Uncompressed Latency Settings | Select the latency settings from the dropdown. The default is Regular (5). |
Audio Meter Display | Select the desired audio meter display standard (PPM or EBU). |
Resolution | Specifies the output mosaic resolution for compressed sources; the chosen resolution should match the layout resolution. |
Interlacing | When checked (), it is interlaced. Else, progressive. *Relevant for compressed sources. For uncompressed, please choose from the dropdown in "SDI over IP format". |
VBV Limit (Mbps) | Specify the value in Mbps or use auto settings (auto settings are highly recommended). |
Video Bitrate (Mbps) | Specify the encoded mosaic bitrate; range: 0.5 to 30 (in Mbps). |
Deblocking | Deblocking toggle switch; relevant for H.264 only. |
Downscale 4K on compressed stream | When checked (), it downscales 4K resolution to 1080. For example, for a higher frame rate (e.g., 50fps) and 4K resolution (e.g., 3840x2160), one can choose to downscale 4K to 1080 resolution by checking this box. |
Downrate 50/59.94/60 Frame rate on compressed stream | When checked, it downrates the higher frame rate to half of the specified rate. For example, for a higher frame rate (e.g., 50fps) and 4K resolution (e.g., 3840x2160), one can choose to downrate the frame rate to 25fps by checking this box. |
GOP Size | Encoded stream max GOP size: 24 or 50. |
Frame Rate | Frame rate reduction mode for low bandwidth transmission. Note: when the mosaic frame rate is reduced to less than standard, the layout cycle feature is disabled. |
GOP Size Mode | Select the GOP size mode (Static or Dynamic). Static: Constant; configured GOP size is fixed. |
SDI out | Not in use. |
Display Alarms | When checked, it displays alarms on the output mosaic. |
Behavior on Input Loss | Select the behavior on Input loss that needs to be displayed on the mosaic from the dropdown list (Icon, Dark Freeze + Icon, Freeze + Icon, or Freeze). For example, if the channel is down, the mosaic displays a Freeze + Icon. |
