Internet connection, including DNS server settings
¹ To access the Internet, the IP address, subnet mask and default gateway
must be configured.
¹ To access the server hosting the streaming service, you must connect
to the DNS (Domain Name System) server, which converts the server’s
domain name and IP address.
* The above settings are usually retrieved from the DHCP server and
assigned.
Continuous TCP communications
To broadcast the livestream via the RTMP or RTMPS protocol over
TCP, continuous communication without interruptions or restrictions
between devices is required.
HTTPS connection to an Internet server
To configure the livestream for a Web app, you must have an HTTPS
connection to an Internet server.
Points to Be Aware of When Livestreaming
Set the appropriate Video Bitrate (p. 137) to match the speed of your
Internet connection.
Press the [MENU] button
Ó “Stream/Record” Ó “Target Bitrate” Ó select
“Video”.
The video bit rate is a target bit rate that’s used when compressing
(encoding) video.
For complex video sequences and the like, the video may be livestreamed
at a bit rate of up to around 1.5 times the value that’s set.
We recommend that you test the speed of your Internet connection
to ensure that a bandwidth of around twice the Video Bitrate value is
available before beginning the livestream.
Starting/Stopping the Livestream, Audio or
Video Recording
The livestream, audio recording and video recording on the VR-120HD
start and stop all at the same time, and cannot be started or stopped
separately.
* You can separately set whether to livestream, record audio or video.
