Configure the Infomaniak encoder for video streaming
This guide explains how to configure the Infomaniak encoder.
1. Default Access and Password Configuration
Once the connections are made, the encoder will be accessible on your network at the following address: 192.168.1.168
Configuration is done from a web browser at the following address: http://192.168.1.168
- Username: admin
- Password: admin
First, set a strong password:
2. Network Configuration
If accessing the address 192.168.1.168 is suitable for you, you can proceed directly to step 3.
Otherwise, if your network is configured with DHCP or if you want to specify a different IP address, the System > Network page allows you to define the access parameters. You may need to contact your network administrator to make the various settings and authorize this new device at the firewall level.
3. Main Stream Configuration
3.1 In the case where only one stream is sent
This applies to the following cases:
- Transcoding in the Cloud => see points (1) and (1.3) of this guide
- or Single Bitrate => see point (3) of this guide
Please adjust the following parameters:
- The bitrate (kbit) and resolution (encoded size) should be adjusted according to your needs.
- RTMP PUBLISH URL corresponds to the publish URL indicated in your Manager in the stream configuration:
The encoder does not allow you to enter a stream key. It is therefore necessary to concatenate it with the URL.
Example: rtmp://stream.vprimary.infomaniak.com/livecast?key=XXXXXX/stream
The “stream” value and the password (key=XXXXXX) must be replaced with your personal data.
3.2 In the case where multiple streams are sent
For more information on this case, please refer to sections (2) and (2.2) of this guide.
If multiple streams are sent, you will be in a multi-bitrate mode with n streams encoded on the encoder.
The Substream1, Substream2, and Substream3 submenus allow you to configure the encoding for up to 3 additional streams:
3.3 Audio configuration
The audio input should be adjusted according to the connections made. The bitrate can also be adjusted according to the type of content. It is recommended to use the following codec: 128 Kbps AAC, at 44100 Hz.
