Real time, 1 RU, quick starting, embedded Linux® based, remotely manageable, multichannel, Monitoring Tool for monitoring multiple HLS streams on a single IPAD or iPhone screen. Multiple IP Transport Streams can be monitored with most any industry standard HLS “protocol”. Audio output is AAC, MPEG-1 Layer II, optional MP3, and/or optional “SurCode for Dolby Digital” AC-3.
To create a single multi-icon view, we encode the 6–12 primary streams to HD, SD, or sub SD resolutions at .1 to 15 Mbps at most any GOP size, frame rate, refresh rate, or aspect ratio, and stitch them together. As mentioned we can simultaneously create high, medium, and low bitrate streams of this multi-icon stream to hand off to your content delivery networks (CDNs) with required authentication, for “One to Many” distribution.
- Supports both HD and SD H.264/MPEG-4 AVC encoding with “virtual” stream replication – optional H.265 available
- Stitches streams to become Mosaics
- Input: One GigE IP input (H.264, MPEG-2, VC-1, or optional H.265) – HTTP Live (HLS), HTTP, UDP, RTP, RTSP, RTMP (pushed from Flash server)
- Supports NewTek™ NDI® input
- IP Output protocols: UDP, RTP, RTMP (Open Flash), HTTP, with DLNA support
- Web GUI is manageable from anywhere – includes some scheduling
- Can create a mosaic of 4X1, 6X1 and more complex sizes on larger versions (Gearbox, Gearbox II, Brutus I, Brutus IV) to a single HLS or RTMP stream for remote viewing
- Support for segmented streaming: Apple® HTTP Live
- Supports M3u8 playlist files (standalone and through HTTP Live)
- Perfect for confidence and QOS & QOE of streams or backhaul
- Can bring in a variety of IP streams in and display on one HLS or RTMP stream out to any device or display
