HOME Apps - Sender Parameters
This topic describes the streaming parameters for a HOME Apps sender.
How to access and edit a sender is described in HOME Apps - Edit Sender or Receiver. Here we describe the specific parameters for each stream essence type: Video, Audio and Meta.
Please note:
- Not all apps support all essence types.
- Some controls vary depending on the transport type.
The tables below describe all possible parameters for each essence type:
