Using the Unit Safely

Before using the unit, please read the warning and precautions provided in the user manual. To ensure that you have a good grasp of every feature of the unit, read the manual carefully. The manual should be saved and kept on hand for further reference.

Operations Guide

Network Configuration and Login (Part 3.1)

To configure the encoder, connect it to a network via a network cable. The default IP address of the encoder is 192.168.1.168. The encoder can automatically obtain a new IP address when using DHCP on the network, or disable DHCP and configure the encoder and computer’s network in the same network segment. The default IP address is:

• IP Address:  192.168.1.168
• Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
• Default Gateway: 192.168.1.1

To access the encoder’s web page for setting up, visit the IP address 192.168.1.168 through an internet browser. The default username and password are both “admin”.

Management Web Page (Part 3.2)

The encoding settings can be set on the encoder management web page.

Language Settings (Part 3.2.1)

LIVE STREAM CONFIGURATION

Configure the encoder to live stream on platforms like YouTube, facebook, twitch, Periscope, etc. Following is an example to show how to configure the encoder to live stream on YouTube.

• Step 1:  Set the main parameters of Stream Protocol to the H.264 mode, and other options are recommended to be the default configuration. In some occasion, they can be adjusted according to the actual situation. For example, if the network speed is slow, the Bitrate Control can be switched from CBR to VBR and adjust the Bitrate from 16 to 12000.
• Step 2:  Setting the RTMP options as follow image:
• Step 3:  Enter the stream URL and stream key in the RTMP URL, and connect them with”/”.
  • For example, the stream URL is “rtmp://a.rtmp.youtube.com/live2”.
  • The Stream key is “acbsddjfheruifghi”.
  • Then the RTMP URL will be “Stream URL”+ “/” + “Stream Key”:
  • “rtmp://a.rtmp.youtube.com/live2/acbsddjfheruifghi”. See below image.
• Step 4:  Click“Apply”to live stream on YouTube.
