    Z3 demo application code and scripts The Z3 application code that comes with the Z3-DM8107-SDI2-RPS is run from the run.sh script in dvr- rdk/dvr_rdk/bin/ti810x. This code calls the z3_dvr_rdk_demo_mcfw_api.out binary, which initializes and runs the encoder. This binary is built from the dvr-rdk directory. The code for the binary resides in z3apps/rdk/rdk_demo.

    This section gives step-by-step instructions on using the Z3-DM8107-SDI2-RPS to stream 1080p or 1080i video to VLC media player running on your PC. In addition to the Z3-DM8107-SDI2-RPS, an HD source with SDI output and a PC are required. (HDMI Output can also be used. See Section 7.13 for details.) *Note: Actual version numbers for your Z3 product may differ from those pictured in this document.

    (3) Connect an Ethernet cable connected through a hub or router to a PC to “Ethernet” on the Z3- DM8107-SDI2-RPS. (4) Connect the supplied serial cable and gender changer to your PC and the Z3-DM8107-SDI2-RPS. (A USB->Serial converter may be needed. If so, the FTDI UC232R-10 (Digikey part #768-1014-ND) is recommended.)

    DOC-USR-0055-05 7.9 Changing the Bitrate Dynamically The Z3-DM8107-SDI2-RPS includes an “Update” button which allows you to change the bitrate or frame rate without stopping and restarting the encoder. To use this feature, complete the following steps: (1) In VLC, click on “Tools” and select “Codec Information.” This brings up a window with four tabs.

  • Page 30: Adjusting The Udp Ts Rate

    DOC-USR-0055-05 7.10 Adjusting the UDP TS Rate The Z3-DM8107-SDI2-RPS includes a parameter to adjust the TS rate independent of the video bitrate. This can be found just below “PMT PID” when “UDP” is selected as the output format. Normally, this value is set to 25% to 33% above the sum of the video and audio bitrate. For example, the default value out of the factory is a value of 10Mbps, corresponding to 8Mbps for the video.

  • Page 31: Figure 19 Ts Rate And Lower Bitrate Reflected In Vlc

    The value of TS Rate must be higher than (video bitrate + audio bitrate) * 1.25. If an attempt is made to input a value less than this, the error message “TS rate too small to carry elementary streams” will appear. ___________________________________________________________________________________________ Z3 Technology, LLC ♦ 100 N 8 ST, STE 250 ♦ Lincoln, NE 68508-1369 USA ♦ +1.402.323.0702...

  • Page 33: Running Dhcp

    DOC-USR-0055-05 7.12 Running DHCP DHCP is also supported. When enabled, the Z3-DM8107-SDI2-RPS dynamically receives an IP address to use at startup. The IP address that is assigned can be seen through the ZFinder tool running on a PC. To view how DHCP support works, you can complete the following steps: (8) The first thing you need to do is set up a custom configuration so that the DHCP setting is used the next time the system boots up.

    (15) The second method is to use the Windows utility ZFinder. To do this, confirm the Windows PC with ZFinder is connected to the same network in which the Z3-DM8107-SDI2-RPS is connected. (16) Run the “ZFinder” PC Utility on your Windows PC. The ZFinder window appears. ZFinder does a scan of the network and lists the location of all Z3 systems connected to the network.

    DOC-USR-0055-05 7.13 Encoding from HDMI or Composite In The Z3-DM8107-SDI2-RPS also supports encode via HDMI or Composite. To do this, a second channel needs to be created. For Composite, a special adapter cable (included with the DM8107-SDI2-RPS) is used. The steps to do a sample HDMI encode are shown below. Similar steps can be used for Composite.

This automatically occurs any time composite or SDI input with closed caption data included is used. Encoding and subsequently extracting closed caption data from composite is shown below:...

  • Page 41: Figure 37 Setting Vlc To Use The Extracted Closed Caption Data

    Full frame rate is needed for closed caption.
