Streaming Video

Streaming Video Support on Enzo allows users to watch video content, such as television, Signage, or a presentation in a meeting
space. This video can be sourced from an AMX H.264 Encoder, and requires Netlinx commands to start a stream. For the best video
playback, AMX recommends streaming progressive scan video.
The Netlinx Master controlling Enzo will provide the video source location from a particular Encoder. The programmer must
program the multicast address, located in the Encoder's Streaming tab, and set up the touch panel to initiate Enzo to play the
stream on the conference room display.
Features of streaming media support include:
Playback of UDP multicast and unicast streams

Playback controlled by ICSP commands

Channel name can be shown if provided within the Info bar
