Streaming to servers, CDNs, and other devices

Pearl-2 can stream to CDNs, local media servers, and even to other Pearl-2 devices that are acting as a streaming ingestion point. Pearl-2 supports many streaming protocols, including: SRT (push), HLS (push), MPEG-DASH (push), RTMP/RTMPS, and RTSP. Use the Admin panel to set up individual channels configured on Pearl-2 for streaming.

Topics include:

• Set up an RTMP or RTMPS (push) stream
• Set up an SRT stream using caller and listener modes
• Set up an SRT stream using rendezvous mode
• Adjust latency and view the SRT stream status
• Set AES encryption and a passphrase for SRT
• Set up an HLS (push) stream
• Set up an MPEG-DASH (push) stream
• Set up an RTSP announce stream
• Stream to a CDN using an XML profile
• Start and stop streaming to a CDN

For details to configure multicast streaming, see Multicast streaming. Streaming a channel to CDNs and multicast streaming is available only when the H.264 codec is configured as the channel encoding, see Configure video encoding.
