Loop HLS Recording SDI/IP

dt logo 1.5inchNet-X-Code Server supports loop recording of multiple bitrate HLS (HTTP Live Streaming) streams from IP or SDI sources.  Setting this up requires configuration of the capture component and HLS adaptive bitrate settings.  This article covers the SDI and IP capture.  For the ABR setup, see https://www.drastic.tv/support-59/supporttipstechnical/303-multirate-hls-dash-setup

SDI Setup

To record from SDI, go to the SDI configuration page on the web or in DDR Config and select "ts-hls" as the record type.  After setting up your input signal format and audio settings, set up the adaptive bit rates as described here:

RegEdit ts hls Type

For Linux, this is stored in ~/.config/Drastic in the NetXCmd.conf file.
