Change HTTP And RTSP Streaming Port Values - Epiphan Video

Change HTTP and RTSP streaming port values

You can use the Admin panel to configure a specific streaming port value for the channel. Ensure that each channel has unique streaming port values that are not currently assigned to any other process, see Network ports used by Pearl-2.

By default, each channel you create is assigned a unique HTTP and RTSP port number. 

For RTSP streaming directly to users on your LAN, the only information that's needed to view the broadcast is the URL and the RTSP port number used to stream the broadcast.

HTTP port numbers are used for FLV and MPEG-TS streaming methods.

Set the HTTP and RTSP streaming ports for streaming to viewers on the local network

1. Login to the Admin panel as admin, see Connect to the Admin panel.
2. From the Channel(s) menu, select the channel and click Streaming. The Streaming page opens.

3. Set the HTTP Streaming port to specify the port used to stream the HTTP broadcast. This value along with the URL is used by viewers to access the FLV and MPEG-TS streams.

The port number must be higher than 500 for HTTP. In the case of RTSP streaming this value is ignored.

4. Set the RTSP Streaming port to specify which port to use when you are streaming live video via RTSP. This value along with the URL is used by viewers to access the broadcast. The default for channel one is 554.
5. Click Apply.
