Set up 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 address: 192.168.1.168
The configuration is done from a web browser at the address: http://192.168.1.168
- Username: admin
- Password: admin
First, set a strong password:
2. Network configuration
If you are satisfied with access to the address 192.168.1.168, you can skip directly to point 3.
Otherwise, if your network is configured for DHCP or if you want to set a different IP address, the System > Network page allows you to set the access parameters. You may need to contact your network administrator to make the necessary adjustments and authorize this new device at the firewall level.
3. Main stream configuration
3.1 In the case where a single stream is sent
This is the case for:
- Cloud transcoding => see point (1) and (1.3) of this guide
- or Monobitrate => see point (3) of this guide
Please adjust the following parameters:
- The bitrate (kbit) and the 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 the latter with the URL.
Example: rtmp://stream.vprimary.infomaniak.com/livecast?key=XXXXXX/stream
The values “stream” 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 points (2) and (2.2) of this guide.
In the case where multiple streams are sent, you will be in a multibitrate mode with n encoded streams on the encoder.
The submenus Substream1, Substream2 and Substream3 allow configuring the encoding of 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. We recommend using the following codec: 128 Kbps AAC, at 44100 Hz.
