Capture agent video encoding settings for live streaming and recording

[sascha.n...@unibe.ch]

Hi everyone

 

We are at the moment reviewing the video encoding settings of our Extron SMP devices and are discussing internally about the optimal setting.  We do both live streaming and recording.

Therefore, I’m also interested in your experience. Which video encoding settings on your CA did you choose and what were your considerations?

 

This is the current configuration of our Extrons:

• Archive Encoder: 1280x720, 30fps, GOP 30 frames, 5 Mbps, VBR, Profile Main 4.1
• Confidence Encoder (live stream) : 1280x720, 30fps, GOP 30 frames, 1.5Mbps, VBR, Profile Main 4.1

 

Thanks in advance for sharing your experience.

 

Kind regards,

Sascha

Hello,

We use the twitch recommandation to set up our extron for live streaming. For recording we are using a higher configuration.
