How to add a ProMPEG output in TVU Channel

TVU Channel makes it simple for anyone to take a channel to “Air” and output to a ProMPEG transport stream.

To add a ProMPEG output:

1. To add an output destination, click the Go Live button.
2. Click +Add to list possible output options, from social media to professional broadcast formats.
3. Choose the RTP-FEC option.
4. Enter a descriptive Name for the output, such as “Output_via_ProMPEG”
5. Enter the IP Address of the destination receiver.
6. Enter the correct Port number as required by the receiver’s configuration.

7. FEC Rows and Columns are advanced settings, and we recommend you do not modify the default settings unless you have an in-depth knowledge of ProMPEG (RTP+FEC) encoding.
8. Set the video Resolution for this output. A higher resolution improves quality but increases network traffic.
9. Set the Bitrate for your output. The bitrate determines how much networking capacity you are dedicating to the output. A higher bitrate increases network traffic but improves quality.
10. Select a three-letter Language Code in the drop-down menu to identify the main language spoken/displayed in the feed.
11. Click the Save button to finish creating this new ProMPEG output destination. You can also click the Save and Go Live button to save it and immediately make this output active.

12. Move the slider to the right when your ProMPEG media displays in the output pop-up window to activate your new ProMPEG output destination.
13. To change the settings on this output, click on the three-dot icon (…) and click Settings. Change the settings as needed and Save your changes.
14. To deactivate this output destination, click the slider to the left. It will turn gray to indicate it is deactivated.
15. To delete this output destination, click the slider to the left to deactivate it. Then click on the three-dot icon (…) and select Delete.
