Viewing with Session Announcement Protocol (SAP)

Some media players, for example Exterity receivers, listen for SAP announcements on a
specific multicast address 239.255.255.255. If your audience is using Exterity to view your
stream, you must change the SAP announcement IP address to 239.255.255.255.

3. Launch a media player and play the streams.

a. Using VLC, click View and select Playlist. The right-hand panel indicates the playlist is empty.

b. From the side menu, click Network streams (SAP). The playlist is populated with all streams in

your network that are SAP announcement enabled. If you specified a Group Name when you
configured the publish stream the stream will be listed in folder identified by the group name.

c. Click on a live stream in the playlist to play the stream.

This VLC example shows two streams D2P83658.vga and D2P83658.video, which are organized in a
folder by their group name.
