RTSP port
Select the port. Off disables the RTSP function. The default port is 554.
18.15 Network > Multicasting page
In addition to a 1:1 connection between an encoder and a single receiver (unicast), the device
enables multiple receivers to receive the video signal from an encoder simultaneously.
The prerequisite for multicast operation is a multicast-capable network that uses the UDP and
IGMP protocols. Other group management protocols are not supported. The TCP protocol
does not support multicast connections.
A special IP address (class D address) must be configured for multicast operation in a
multicast-enabled network. The network must support group IP addresses and the Internet
Group Management Protocol (IGMP V2). The address range is from 225.0.0.0 to
239.255.255.255. The multicast address can be the same for multiple streams. However, it is
then necessary to use a different port in each case so that multiple data streams are not sent
simultaneously using the same port and the same multicast address.
Note: The settings must be done for each encoder (video input) and for each stream
individually. The numbering follows the labeling of the video inputs on the device.
Enable
To enable simultaneous data reception on several receivers you need to activate the multicast
function. To do this, check the box. You can then enter the multicast address.
Multicast Address
Enter a valid multicast address for each stream from the relevant encoder (video input) to be
operated in multicast mode (duplication of the data streams in the network).
With the setting 0.0.0.0 the encoder for the relevant stream operates in multi-unicast mode
(copying of data streams in the device). The device supports multi-unicast connections for up
to five simultaneously connected receivers.
Note: Duplication of data places a heavy demand on the device and can lead to impairment of
the image quality under certain circumstances.
Port
Assign a different port to each data stream if there are simultaneous data streams at the same
multicast address.
Enter the port address of the required stream here.
Streaming
Click the checkbox to activate multicast streaming mode for the relevant stream. An enabled
stream is indicated by a check mark.
For normal multicast operation, streaming is typically not required.
Packet TTL (only for Dinion IP, Gen4 and FlexiDome)
Enter a value to specify how long the multicast data packets are active on the network. If
multicast is to be run via a router, the value must be greater than 1.
