SRT
To connect to an SRT source, select the Stream / SRT option from the Add Input window and select either SRT (Caller), SRT (Listener) or SRT (Rendezvous) from the Stream Type dropdown.
The following settings are available:
Listener: Listen on the specified Port on all network adapters on the computer for connections. Hostname is ignored.
Caller: Connect to the specified Hostname and Port.
Rendezvous: Connect to the specified Hostname and Port. The other side must also be set to Rendezvous with an identical port number specified.
This mode allows connecting through most firewalls automatically.
Specify the latency of the connection in milliseconds to adapt to network congestion.
The higher this value, the better SRT can handle difficult network conditions.
As a general rule this should be set to at least 4x the ping time destination IP. So 20ms would require a latency setting of at least 80
This must be set to the same value on both ends.
Some encoders may not send evenly spaced frames, also known as jitter.
Encoders may also send audio long before or after the associated video frame.
To compensate for this, a Decoder Delay can be configured to allow for any potential jitter on the encoder side.
For example if frames may arrive 100ms apart, set the decoder delay here to at least 150.
Specify a password to encrypt the connection. This password must be used by both sides for the connection to be established.
Key Length
This is the encryption strength to use. Multiple by 8 to convert to bits, for example 32 = 256bit encryption.
Optional Stream ID that may be required by your streaming provider to uniquely identify the stream.
Use accelerated decoding where available on the graphics card. The majority of modern graphics cards support both H264 and HEVC hardware decoding.
vMix will fall back to CPU decoding where available.
Due to SRT using an already compressed video stream (in Transport Stream .ts format)
Any MultiCorder recordings of this input will save the stream directly to file without using the compression settings specified in the MultiCorder window.
