HOME Stream Transcoder - Senders

The 'Device → Senders' page displays information relating to the Video, Audio and Metadata senders provided by the app.

From here you can check information about a sender, and select a sender to access its more advanced options: I/O Routing (for the audio streams), the stream configuration parameters, SDP data and Disable/Enable controls.

Available Senders (TX)

For a HOME Stream Transcoder, there a single output sender:

TX 1 = Stream Transcoder Output

When considering the app's configuration, the Video/Audio/Meta Transport options (for the Output) determine the number and type of flows.

The output can be configured to transmit the following streams:

Video (only)
Video and Audio
Video and Meta
Video, Audio and Meta

Once an app is configured and running, the sender details can be checked from the Senders page:

Sender Information

The informational fields show the Label of each sender, its essence type (Video, Audio or Meta) and other information such as whether dual-redundant streaming is configured. The fields have the same meaning for all app types, and are described in HOME Apps - Senders and Receivers.

Sender Operations

Once a sender is selected, the user can access and edit its more advanced options. For example, to adjust the I/O Routing (for the audio streams), the stream configuration parameters, SDP data and Disable/Enable controls:

I/O Routing (for audio senders only) - see HOME Apps - I/O Routing (for Audio Streams).
Parameters - see HOME Apps - Edit Sender or Receiver and HOME Apps - Sender Parameters.
SDP Data - see HOME Apps - SDP Data.
Disable (or Enable) - allows the user to disable, and re-enable individual senders. Disabling a sender may be helpful for debugging purposes.

Advanced page parameters

Further controls are available via the Advanced parameters page. See HOME Stream Transcoder - Advanced -> Senders.
