Set quality to Low for best performance. It will use a lot of bitrate otherwise.
Login to the admin page you received from us, login.pixelview.io/xxxxx. This starts the stream on our end.
Click the HW/SW icon in Avid to make sure it's blinking. (sometimes you first need to do step 5 and open the login.pixelview page)
Click the watch link to view the stream on the admin page. “Watch link”.
Use Safari for best quality and latency.
If you are seeing artefacts or other glitches in the stream there are a couple of settings to change.
In the SRT protocol, this parameter is used to mitigate bad network between you and the server. It should be no less than twice the round-trip between encoder and ingest server. Increasing it will lead to slighly longer latency but a more stable stream.
In the SRT settings in Avid, try a higher latency value.
Best color accuracy and quality is in the iPhone, iPad or Apple TV apps. Download from the app store and enter the Stream ID and Password.
