Input Stream Configuration
Flash/RTSP Pull
*To access the Flash/RTSP Pull fields:
1. Navigate to Input Configuration > Flash/RTSP Pull.
Use this page to configure streams that will be pulled into the RTMP Multi-protocol server on the DME. Both RTMP and RTPS streams are configured on this page.
As shown below the number of supported streams depends on the DME hardware you purchased. See table below for the number of configurable input streams.
 
Field
Description
Stream Name
Name used within the DME to connect input and output streams. It is possible to effectively retain the input stream name by making stream name and Publishing Point names the same or changing the stream name to the name used within the DME. In some cases, the publishing point names may be cryptic as is typically true if coming from a CDN
Type
RTSP – pull the RTSP stream into the DME.
RTMP – pull the RTMP stream into the DME.
Source IP/Address:Port
Enter the IP address of the source server. Enter a port number only if you are not using the default RTMP port (1935) or the default RTSP port (554). If pulling RTSP from the RTP Streaming server, enter 127.0.0.1.
Application
Only required if you are pulling RTMP. This string is defined by the source. For example, on a VBrick encoder, this string corresponds to the RTMP Application value on the Program Configuration > Transmitters page. Valid strings are limited to: live, vod, vbrick, and vbApp.
Publishing Point
This is Publishing Point Name on the source server. If the source is a VBrick encoder, use the Resource Name on the Program Configuration > Servers page on the encoder.
User Name
Required if client-side authentication is required by the source server.
Password
Required if client-side authentication is required on the source server.
Use RTCP
Default = Enabled. RTCP server reports assist maintaining audio/video synchronization for some players. Uncheck if your server does not generate RTCP reports of if you wish to ignore RTCP reports from the source.
Enable
Use this dropdown to enable or disable the stream. All streams are disabled by default.
Status
Read only: Disabled | Connected | Receiving.
